School District U-46 offers a 403(b) and 457(b) Retirement Savings Plan. 

The 403(b) plan allows employees to save for retirement by deferring a portion of their salary into an individual account. The 457(b) plan allows participants to defer income taxation on contributions and earnings until they withdraw the money, usually in retirement. 

Being well involves more than just using your healthcare plans. Wellness is a daily commitment to eating healthy, staying active, managing stress and maintaining balance.

With this in mind, we've created an integrated wellness program to help you create healthy habits and reach your highest level of well being. The District’s Wellness Program is designed to assist you in taking an active role in improving their health by:
• Assisting participants with understanding their health care risks
• Helping them understand their own key biometric numbers
• Providing them with programs and coaching that will assist
them in making better decisions
• Encouraging physical activity

There is a wellness base program and bonus program. The base program incentive is $120 per eligible person. For the bonus program, eligible members will receive $20 every month if they meet their daily “step goal” at least 12 times per calendar month.

U-46 also offers One Pass Select, which is a subscription fitness and well-being program that’s designed around you and your goals. Starting at $5 per month, there are five membership tiers to choose from with the option to change tiers monthly.
