[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Something that I think would be super simple to implement would be to allow former teachers to come back at the step they left at. Right now the max entry step is 13, so if you had status but had to take time off to raise children or care for parents or move for spouse’s job, you can’t come back above step 13. You also can’t rejoin the old retirement system you were on. Those two things would make returning to FCPS (over a different county or career) more appealing.[/quote]

Retirement is not affected if you left the money in the account. I took a year off and then came back to same plan. [/quote]

Up to 2 years for a LOA, yes. Beyond that, I was told you are rehired as a brand new employee and added to the new retirement system—which is not nearly as good. Is that not true? (Wouldn’t surprise me if HR says multiple things!)[/quote]

Not true. FCPS has no control over your VRS if you are vested. If you leave it in the system and are vested you should stay in the same plan. [/quote]
