Gov. Pritzker signed Public Act 102-0440 extending the program that allows a TRS retiree to return to work without post-retirement limitations. The regional Superintendent must designate the employment to be in a subject shortage area in order for a retiree to be able to return to work without limitation. The program will expire on June 30, 2027.

The Return to Teaching in Subject Shortage Area requires certification from the Regional Superintendent.
