AZ: Charter school teachers face exit from Arizona state retirement system
East Valley Tribune: Arizona's charter school teachers could be kicked out of the state retirement system if a proposal rule change by the IRS goes into effect in June.
The IRS is accepting public comment through Monday on the change that would essentially strip charter schools of their status as government groups when it comes to retirement system participation. If that were to happen, teachers at those charter schools who now participate in the Arizona State Retirement System could be forced to find jobs elsewhere where they would qualify or possibly forfeit what they've got invested, said Eileen Sigmund, president and chief executive officer of the Arizona Charter Schools Association.
