We will need to issue a stop payment on the lost check. This can take up to twenty-four hours. We can then re-issue your check. When we have the re-issued check we will notify you and you can pick it up at the Business Office or we can mail it to you.
How do I start a direct deposit or change an existing direct deposit?
Please see the forms page for a direct deposit enrollment form. If you have any questions on how to complete the form please call Kay Fanton at the phone number above or by e-mail.

How to Change your Legal Name with Payroll?
If you have legally changed your name either through marriage or divorce you must first visit the Social Security Office and obtain a new Social Security Card with your new name. For security reasons we suggest that you visit the Payroll Office at the Cuba-Rusford Elementary building, with your new card. We will need a copy for the files to satisfy audit requirements. We will then be able to change your name in payroll. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact us.
