District Financial Services

District Financial Services is committed to providing professional, efficient service so that the students, families, employees and organizations that we serve will benefit. Our department provides services in the areas of payroll and retirement to local public school agencies and their employees.

Some of our duties include auditing and processing payroll, handling wage withholding orders, and submitting retirement reports to both CalPERS and CalSTRS. We provide training workshops for school district employees in the areas of payroll and retirement so that they can work accurately and efficiently.

Workshops are also hosted locally to provide an opportunity for district employees to learn about the CalPERS and CalSTRS retirement systems.  Pre-retirement counseling sessions are available for those close to retirement. Please use the links on this page to learn more about our department, or to find information or resources regarding the areas in which we work:
