What it does
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Under current law, school district and private school employees may request to receive wage payments over 12 months for the work performed over the course of a school year. This bill adds cooperative educational service agency employees to those employees who may request to receive wage payments over 12 months for services performed during the school year. Cooperative educational service agencies serve as a link both between school districts and between school districts and the state.
Cooperative educational service agencies may provide leadership, coordination, and education services to school districts, University of Wisconsin System institutions, and technical colleges, and may facilitate communication and cooperation among all public, private, and tribal schools, and all public and private agencies and organizations that provide services to pupils.
