Noninstructional and hourly school employees; compensate at usual rate whenever district temporarily closes schools.

Summary

The bill mandates that when a Mississippi school district shuts down because of extreme weather, illness, natural disaster, or other disruptions, hourly and non‑instructional employees must be paid as if they had worked their usual hours. Compensation is based on scheduled hours or a 30‑day average for workers with variable schedules, and the pay rate cannot be reduced. This ensures these workers receive income during unexpected closures.
