Set Stage For Teacher Annuity Plan
A 1965 Corry Area Joint School Committee plan to offer tax sheltered teacher annuities gains momentum. Officials and an insurance agent from Wayne Township outlined mechanics for this school year, targeting older teachers and couples near retirement with few applicants so far. The program would deduct salary into an insurer account, then payouts would be taxed at lower rates upon retirement, despite objections about added administrative work. The committee authorized the insurer to proceed with arrangements with interested teachers expected to start late fall.
