IX.G. Consideration and Possible Action to Approve an Early Resignation Notice Incentive for Employees of Florence ISD Presenter: Rick Kirkpatrick Description: As we discussed at the January Board Meeting, in order to incentivize teachers who are planning to retire or depart the district at the end of the school year, the District proposes a $1,000.00 Early Resignation Notice Incentive if the employee submits their retirement/resignation letter no later than March 10, 2026. The employee must fulfill their contract for this school year in order to be eligible for payment and their resignation is irrevocable. The incentive will allow us to post jobs prior to Spring Break when many are actively looking for positions for the following school year, instead of waiting for resignations later in the year when the candidate pool is much shallower.
