Nevada Joint Union High School District

 

 

A comprehensive benefits package is just one of the many reasons to consider working at Nevada Joint Union High School District!

 

Assured Partners provide our District health care benefits. Through a cafeteria plan, employees may choose from various UnitedHealthcare medical plans. Kaiser medical plans are also available to our employees in Kaiser-eligible coverage areas. We also participate in a dental plan through Delta Dental, a vision plan through Vision Service Plan (VSP), and life insurance coverage through Madison National Life. If you need further details on our medical plans, visit Employee Navigator or contact our Assured Partners Representative, Christy Oxoby, at 775-993-6993.

 

Certificated and Classified Employees
The District offers full-time certificated and classified employees (7+ hours/day) participation in the district benefit plan, with tiered contributions of $956 to $1,414 per month toward coverage. Part-time certificated employees may participate in the district plan if they work at least a 3/6ths teaching schedule, and classified employees if they work at least 4 hours/day. However, they must pay a prorated portion of the health and welfare premium. Click on the link at the bottom of this page to see the tiered contributions and the "out-of-pocket" cost to full-time employees based on their plan and how many dependents they choose to cover.

3/6ths – district contribution is 50% of the benefit contribution
4/6ths – district contribution is 67% of the benefit contribution
