All school employees working on a continuing, regular basis, shall be paid
regularly, on dates determined by the employing board of education, during the
school year or during the fiscal year for twelve (12) month employees, the
provisions of KRS 337.020 notwithstanding. The gross salary received on each
pay date will be an amount equal to the school employee's annual salary
divided by the number of pay dates, except a local board of education shall pay
an employee any remaining salary owed prior to the end of the fiscal year upon
completion of the employee's responsibilities or duties if so notified by the
employee.
Salary amounts shall be paid on the prescribed pay dates without deduction for
days on which schools were closed; provided, however, any time not worked
for which pay is received must be made up prior to the end of that current
school year, or pay so received shall be withheld from the final salary payment
of that school year.
Gross Salary payments under subsection (1) of this section need not, but may,
include pay for extra duties or services. Payment for extra duties or services
must be paid pursuant to a payment plan adopted by the board of education
prior to the beginning of the school year. The board of education may also
adopt a plan for providing a program of fringe benefits to its employees.
All payments made for salaries, extra duties, and fringe benefits by the board
of education under the authority of this section are deemed to be for services
rendered and for the benefit of the common schools; the payments do not
affect the eligibility of any school system to participate in the public school fund
as established in KRS Chapter 157. Nor shall any individual board member or
administrator be held liable where additional payments for such service
become necessary. Provided, however, that nothing in this section authorizes
or requires the payment of salaries to personnel when schools are closed as a
result of a strike or other work stoppage or when schools are open and
personnel fail to render services. No part of this section shall be law if any part
is declared unconstitutional.
Subsection (2) of this section does not apply to those employed on a twelve
(12) month basis.
