“I’ve occasionally seen some problems with overpayment for support professionals,” she said, “but these are the first two of this type of overpayment that I’ve worked with.”asking her to repay more than $23,000 in overpayments made since the start of the 2016-17 school year when she became manager.

Education and the teachers unions need an overhaul

Only in Alabackwards.

Unfortunately it seems like they'll have to pay it back, and would be the same thing if it was an organization. Companies have the option whether or not they ask and in this particular case, if we had a legislature or governor worth a shit, they could step in. GoFundMe Maybe?

If she noticed her salary went up and didn’t say anything it’s theft plain and simple.

Hire a lawyer!

The county is gonna end up paying a whole lot more than the $33,000 THEY overpaid by the time this is all said and done.

They need a new bookkeeper

Is Chilton County running a scam on their employees? How do you overpay someone for four to six years and then say pay us back? Whoever is negligent in their job as CFO/Accounting/BOE should be fired. Stop demanding money back for repayment.

Sue the heck out of em lady, don't think Chilton County have say in this clearly yalls fault.
