    Default Re: Teacher Pro-Rated Salary

    While I agree with PayrollGuy, I would also take the contract to a local attorney just in case there is some type of language in there that would affect payment after termination of employment (either voluntary or involuntary). Once you have that confirmation that there isn't something in there that gives them the right to withhold, definitely contact the Board and if not solved, the state/Federal DOL (although unfortunately FL is one of the more employer friendly states)

    Thank you. Lots of good advice. I'm going to see an attorney and bring the paperwork I have. She did respond to my email saying she "cannot afford" to pay me, so I feel like she is just being unethical. Again, thanks!

    I will be honestly with you, smaller private schools generally fight cash flow problems up one side and down the other, and their administrators will often just get stupid when trying to manage cash. However, they will generally fight tooth and nail to keep open, so if you get a judgment you are more likely to get paid eventually than in many other scenarios.

    Make sure you keep that email. "Cannot afford" to pay is not the same as "I don't owe you anything."

    And from now on I suggest you put everything in writing (real paper and mail) and not get into conversations that can easily be denied.
