Deadline for submitting resignations for teachers who are retiring is March 31st.  The NLESD has indicated that they will be processing all resignations received up to April 8th, after which time, Board officials will be directing their attention to staffing.  Any resignations received after April 8th may not be processed until later and thus may delay when a teacher might expect to receive their pension benefits.  For teachers who are retiring at the end of the school year and whose resignations are received by the Board by April 8th, the processing of the resignation will occur in time for the teacher to receive their entire summer holdback in a lump-sum payout during the first pay period in July, followed by their first pension check being directly deposited on July 15th.  Teachers who do not meet the April 8th deadline may have their pension check delayed in July.
