The following voluntary deductions are approved by the School Board:

 

  1. Membership dues in recognized professional associations. Dues shall be deducted only upon receipt of an authorization signed by the individual employee.

  2. Deductions for employee contributions to the school system's hospitalization and life insurance program and any other insurance or tax-sheltered annuity programs which are or may be approved by the School Board.

  3. U.S. Savings Bonds.
