Start of School Year Reminders/Updates

It is that time of year again! Welcome to the 2025 – 2026 School Year!

Here are a few important reminders/updates as we get the school year started:

New Hires

  • New hires will be added to Kronos based on their hire date and will be able to access their timecard at that time:
    • New 200-Day Teachers have hire dates of 8/2/2025
      • 8/2/2025 is the first day of the pay period. This is NOT the first day the employee is expected to report for work.
    • New 188-Day TAs (formerly 182-day) have hire dates of 8/8/2025
    • Any non-exempt new hires with a mid-week start date must have the “New Hire – No Shortfall” code added to the timecard for any system-generated shortfall.
    • All non-exempt employees must have a schedule added to Kronos upon import.
  • To view start dates based on calendars, please review the 2025-26 Kronos Calendars

Employee Transfers

  • Most Teachers and TAs moving to new schools will have their records updated to the new location and new supervisor starting on 8/2/2025.
