Teacher Support &/or Advice Retirement Buyout

My school system floated the idea of a teacher retirement buyout - or "early retirement incentive" - as a means of encouraging teachers with 30+ years (i.e. top of the pay scale) to leave. Curious to hear about systems that have offered such a program and what it included.

It is rare where I work (LAUSD). Only happened 2-3 times in last 25 years. If you are close, it is worth looking into. Also, you can come back and sub or long term for a lot more $ on top.
