Middle schools are now given the option to transmit their payroll electronically to the Payroll Department by scanning documents, with a scanner, and then emailing to the Payroll Department.  To protect the employees’ personal information, please use the District encrypted email called MoveIt.

  • Time sheets and all payroll documents can be emailed to Carolyn Bevan at carolyn.bevan@jordandistrict.org.
  • Payroll will forward time sheets to the applicable departments for review and signatures using MoveIt.
  • If Payroll documents were emailed to Payroll, Do Not send original documents as this could cause duplicate pay.
  • Employees should use the True Time system, whenever possible, to record their time for any extra jobs, rather than using paper time sheets.

As you are already aware, Payroll has been continually changing and becoming more efficient using technology.  Because of these many payroll changes, and to avoid conflicting information between departments and schools regarding payroll, we ask that you please clarify or discuss any payroll issues and/or concerns through the Payroll Department.

We thank you for your continued support, suggestions, and especially for your hard work in helping Payroll run smoothly each month.  If you have any questions, please contact Sarah Palmer, Payroll Director, at 801-567-8154 or email sarah.palmer@jordandistrict.org.

Copies of the TC-40D Tax Exemption Form for a Dependent with a Disability can currently be found in two places on the Special Education website. Under the Staff Information tab, and then by clicking on Forms, it can be found under the heading "TAX Form". Additionally, parents can locate the form under the Parent Information tab and by scrolling to the bottom of the page.  Parents of students with disabilities who wish to take advantage of this tax exemption will be required to obtain the signature of a school district representative who can certify that the dependent qualifies. The verification form should be signed by the school principal (LEA) or their designee.

The dependent must have a current IEP and must be eligible under one of the identified classifications or categories of disability (please see TC-40D Form for eligible disabilities). Please note that students with learning disabilities, emotional disturbances and communication speech language disorders only are NOT ELIGIBLE. Should a parent request that the school sign the TC-40D Tax Exemption Form, please check that the student is on a current IEP and verify that the student is being served under one of the eligible categories of disability.

Please contact your teacher specialist if you have any questions.

We have another group of surplus items on PublicSurplus.com for reallocation to schools - it will run 01/26/2017 - 02/09/2017 and will roll over to public auction on 02/09/2017 for a week. Please take a look and see if there is anything you need for your school. There are solid wood sled chairs, solid wood tables, as well as three (3) pianos.

Please remember that your school needs to do their surplus paperwork and turn it in with all signatures if you want to be scheduled for pickup. Please do not delay in getting your paperwork in so that we can schedule you for our next surplus pickup.

If your school has remodels or special projects coming up this summer, please start getting your surplus together now so that we aren't trying to push everything through at the last minute.

As always thank you for your help and cooperation.
