Question 1

What's the difference between a 403(b) and a 401(k) for schools?

Accepted Answer

A 403(b) is a retirement plan available to employees of certain non-profit and educational employers — including many private and independent schools — and works similarly to a 401(k). Some schools offer a 401(k) instead. We help you compare the two, understand contribution limits and any employer obligations, and choose what fits your staff and budget.

Question 2

How do we compete for teachers with our benefits?

Accepted Answer

Strong health benefits and a real retirement plan are two of the most effective tools for attracting and retaining faculty. We design packages that punch above their weight — plans teachers value, at a cost your school can sustain — and we help you communicate the value to staff.

Question 3

Can you work with our small school?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We specialize in small and mid-sized employers, and that includes small private and independent schools. We'll right-size the package to your headcount and budget — whether that's a few dozen staff or fewer.

Question 4

Do you handle enrollment and employee education?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We run enrollment meetings, provide plain-language materials, and answer your staff's questions year-round — so your business office isn't the only benefits resource for your faculty.
