§ 21-13-324 — Teacher extra compensation adjustment to district total amount per ADM

(a) A district may pay extra compensation to a teacher as
necessary to employ teachers for providing educational programs
at locations which because of their unique circumstances require
additional pay. Extra compensation under this section:
(i) Shall not reflect district preference for higher
salaries;
(ii) Shall be payment for performing regular duties
and not be payment for performing any additional duties assigned
to the teacher;
(iii) May be in the form of subsidized expenses other
than rent or housing allowances, a cash bonus or a combination.
(b) If compensation is paid to the teacher for costs other
than rent or housing allowances, the school district shall
provide information to the state department describing the
difference in the amount paid by the teacher and the average
comparable market rate within the county for the subsidized
cost.
(c) Upon application by a district upon a form prescribed
and provided by the state department, the department shall
reimburse the district from the foundation account for extra
compensation paid pursuant to subsection (a) of this section,
administered as if the district's total foundation program
amount computed under W.S. 21-13-309(p) was increased by the
amount of extra compensation paid during the preceding year. The
department shall require the district to document the need for
extra compensation payments.
