MCAAP/MCBOA ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP DUES: $1,200.20

Payment for membership dues is through payroll deductions @ $60.01 over 20 pay periods starting with the September 13, 2024 paycheck and ending with the June 13, 2025 paycheck. If you prefer, you may pay your membership dues in

full by check. This amount includes $100.20 toward your membership in The American Federation of School Administrators (AFSA), a national union associated with AFL-CIO.

In addition to dues, MCAAP/MCBOA members contribute one day (8 hours) of personal leave each year to fund the MCAAP Administrative Leave Bank.
