Welcome to your FUSD benefits! 

As an employee working 30 hours or more per week, or .75 FTE, you are eligible for benefits.

You are required to enroll in medical, dental, vision and life coverage. However, you do have the option of waiving medical coverage if you can provide proof of other coverage and complete the Waiver of Medical Coverage form on the enrollment website. If you choose to enroll dependents in any of your benefit plans, you will be responsible for paying 100% of their coverage. To see the 2024-2025 benefit rates, please click here: Benefit Rates 

You can also enroll in voluntary plans, including additional life insurance coverage for yourself; life insurance for your spouse or child(ren); and Short-Term Disability. You will be responsible for paying 100% of the cost of any voluntary benefits. If you elect to enroll in Short-Term Disability you must complete the enrollment forms found on our website Assurant Short-Term Disability and need to be sent to Assurant to the address on the form.  

You can save each month on your medical benefit costs and copays by participating in the NAPEBT Wellness Incentive Program and utilizing the Vera Whole Health Clinic - Flagstaff. Please remember – the Vera Whole Health Clinic is NOT a walk-in clinic; you MUST make an appointment!

  • Our Mission:  To provide a workplace that supports employees, families, and communities in health and wellness to optimize quality of life.

    Flagstaff Unified School District is a member of the Northern Arizona Public Employees Benefit Trust (NAPEBT). NAPEBT was formed in 1993 to provide a comprehensive and cost effective benefits package by combining resources and leveraging the buying power of a group of public employers. Purchasing benefits through NAPEBT has increased our ability to sustain a better benefits package long-term than would have been possible individually.

    With rising health care costs, it is inevitable that employee insurance premiums will increase. The Wellness Incentive Program was created as an opportunity to offset the rising costs of health care by lowering high-cost claims; a healthy population has less costly claims. Employees covered under NAPEBT can earn incentives up to $360 per year by participating in the Wellness Incentive Program.
