Payroll

Employees in the Shakopee School District are paid bi-weekly (normally every other Friday) starting the last Friday in August.

Your first check in the district will be a live paper check (your first check after any direct deposit change will also be a live paper check).

Any extra pay vouchers or miscellaneous items to be paid out on payroll MUST be received by payroll at the District Office by the end of the day Monday prior to that Friday’s pay date. 

Time Off Requests are entered via Frontline Absence Management. Employees should also consult with the direct supervisor on proper coverage.

You can view your paycheck, time off, and other employee specific information on Skyward under Employee Access:

• User Log In: You will use your district username and password
• Time Off: Skyward reflects in hours and minutes (Ex. 2:30).  Time off is updated every two weeks during the payroll process. 
• Employee Access App: For those that want Employee Access at the palm of your hand there is a Skyward Mobile Access app which is available for free download on Android and iOS devices. Once you have installed the application on your device, you can launch it to begin the setup process. Instructions included but can be found online here. 
• W-2s: You may choose to opt out of mailed copies; communication will be sent out closer to the new calendar year.

A new W-4 must be filled out any time you want to change your withholdings. If you want any additional taken out of your check or different withholdings for state taxes, you must fill out a W-4 MN as well.
