The Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act of 1986 (AHERA) required the inspection of all buildings in the school district for asbestos.  The District has complied with this act.  A management plan documenting these inspections is on file for public review.  Upon request you may view the plan, which is located at the superintendent’s office and at each campus.  The Deer Creek Public Schools annually notifies all parents, teachers, and other employees by posting this notice.  Additionally, information regarding any asbestos related activities, planned or in progress, will be disseminated by posting a notice, or using handout bulletins, e-mails, flyers and /or using school newsletters.  The asbestos identified in our management plan will be checked regularly by a licensed asbestos company and by our staff to scrutinize any changes in the material, which could cause a health hazard.  We will continue to monitor the asbestos as defined by EPA guidelines.  If changes occur, our asbestos coordinator will notify the appropriate people as described by law.

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) affords parents and students who are 18 years of age or older ("eligible students") certain rights with respect to the student's education records. 

Employee 403(b) Plan Eligibility Notice

In compliance with Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Universal Availability requirements, we are pleased to offer eligible employees the opportunity to voluntarily save for retirement by participating in the 403(b) Plan  ("the Plan"). 

If eligible, you may participate in this Plan by establishing a 403(b) account with one of the Plans' approved  Investment Providers and completing a salary reduction agreement to make pre-tax contributions or (if  permitted by the Plan) Roth 403(b) after-tax contributions. 

Generally, salary reduction contributions can be made in an amount up to the lesser of 100% of includable  compensation or the annual limitations set by the IRS. For the 2026 tax year, the annual contribution limit is  $24,500 with a catch-up contribution of up to $8,000 for employees that are age 50 or older. If you are aged 60 to 63, you may be allowed an additional catch-up contribution up to $3,250. You may also qualify for an additional catch-up contribution of up to $10,000 if you have completed  15 years of service or more with the school district.

To determine the amount of additional catch-up, a  Maximum Allowable Contribution (MAC) worksheet must be completed with your sales agent and returned to  the payroll department along with a completed salary reduction agreement for approval. You can access the  MAC worksheet within this digital document, page 19 - https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p571.pdf. 

Please be aware that if you participate in more than one 403(b) Plan or another qualified Plan such as a  401 (k), you will be responsible for tracking and reporting the amount of your total contributions to the school  district, so you do not exceed the annual contribution limitation. 

By electing to participate in the Plan, you are acknowledging and agreeing to abide by the Plan's rules and  all Internal Revenue Code (IRC) regulations related to 403(b) Plans. To learn more about the 403(b) Plan,  including, but not limited to, (1) Plan Participation Eligibility, (2) Plan distribution/transfer/rollover rules, and  (3) a list of the Plan' approved investment providers, please contact your school district, or you may contact our administrative services provider, AFPlanServ, by calling 866-560-6415 or emailing info@afplanserv.com.

For information about specific 403(b) investment products offered by each of our Plans' approved providers,  it will be your responsibility to contact each company directly. It is also your responsibility to (1) understand  the possible tax and investment consequences of the investment options you select, (2) understand the  costs of the investment selected and any administrative charges. You are encouraged to seek investment,  legal and/or tax advice. IRS Publication 571 (Tax Sheltered Annuity Programs for Employees of Public  Schools) is available at www.irs.gov (the IRS's website) for further information and reference. 

Please contact the school district if you have questions regarding this Notice and/or if you would like to  participate in the Plan.
