IPERS & 403b Retirement Investments

The IPERS plan is a defined benefit pension plan. Your benefits grow with you throughout your IPERS-covered employment and like your years of service and salary increase, your IPERS benefits grow too. 

Both you and the SCCSD contribute to IPERS. IPERS invests the contributions and holds the investment income in a trust fund for the exclusive purpose of paying benefits to members and their beneficiaries. 

Enrolling in IPERS is easy and coverage is automatic for SCCSD employees. Employees just need to designate a beneficiary.

A 403(b) retirement plan allows eligible SCCSD employees to contribute some of their wages to the plan. There are significant tax advantages for participants in a 403(b), including pre-tax contributions to a 403(b) plan and earnings.
