Is employee of *for-profit* private school eligible for unemployment for June to September?

0 votes
I am a nurse at a private school.  State website says only this:

Q. Can I receive benefits during the summer if I am a school employee?
A. Employees paid by a non-profit private school, a public school, or a college, who have a reasonable assurance of returning to work after a school recess or holiday period, may not be eligible for benefits. However, if you had non-school employment with sufficient wages to establish a claim, you may be eligible for benefits. If you work for a private contractor, which provides bus drivers, cafeteria services, etc, you may be eligible for benefits and should apply for benefits.

Sounds as though you will most likely qualify.  Were unemployment taxes deducted from your wages?
