Reminder - Positions are still open

Camp Hobé is currently recruiting volunteers for their summer camp sessions, including counselors and kitchen assistants. Volunteering for Camp Hobé is a great experience for anyone, but especially for school professionals such as teachers, assistants, administrators, or lunch workers. It's a great opportunity to interact with kids outside of the classroom (plus you get to throw water balloons!).

Please forward the attached flyers to employees and anyone else interested in volunteering.

Schools and departments can NEVER pay an employee through Accounting (i.e. check request or NPO). Employees must be paid through Payroll (i.e. True Time or Time Sheet). Accounting only pays vendors (businesses) and reimburses employees for purchases they made on behalf of the District.

If an employee has a business which:
a) has a business license, and
b) does work for other entities beside the District, and
c) completes an "Independent Contractor Declaration," and
d) the work they are doing has no similarity to the work the District hired the individual to do, then that business may be paid through Accounting.

However, this is extremely rare and care should be taken to ensure the above four items are true. When you have any doubt about a certain situation, it is safer to pay the person through Payroll as an employee.
