New Employee Orientation is offered frequently throughout the year and new employees will receive information in their welcome letter. 

Once you have cleared your background check, you will be contacted by the Human Resources Specialist assigned to your campus to complete your onboarding packet. You will receive your Employee Name Badge at that time. 

If you have lost or misplaced your name badge you will be required to pay $7.00 (cash only) for a new badge.

If you currently have your badge and it is not working, then bring it to the Office of Human Resources for a replacement badge.

Employee Name Badges are processed, Monday through Friday, 8:00am- 4:30pm.

An employee’s first paycheck is paid based upon the pay period during which the employee officially reports to work. Reference the Payroll Calendar on our website. 

The date an employee receives his/her first paycheck will depend on the date on which the employee was hired. Employees are paid on the 10th and 25th of each month. 

Employee paycheck information is available online by logging on to Employee Service Center. Go to My Payroll Information. 

This depends on your assigned work day calendar. Please visit the Employee Workday Calendar for your state/local leave eligibility. 

State & Local Leave

10 month employees (5 state days, 5 local days)
11 month employees (5, state days, 6 local days)

State days are leave days (paid time off) allotted by the state to all eligible public education employees in Texas. Local days are leave days (paid time off) allotted by the Beaumont Independent School District or the public local (Texas) district for which you work.
