Flexible Spending Account

A Flexible Spending Account (FSA) is an employer owned account that lets you set aside pre-tax dollars (which lowers your taxable income) to pay for eligible out-of-pocket expenses.
The Barstow School FSA year follows our benefit plan year of May 1, 2025 through April 30, 2026.
We offer two types of FSAs:
1. Healthcare FSA – Can be used to pay eligible medical, dental, orthodontia and vision expenses
2. Dependent Care – Can be used to pay eligible expenses for childcare, eldercare or care for a disabled dependent

• 90-day run-out extension to file claims for transactions incurred within the previous year.
• 75-day grace period to incur expenses after the end of the plan year.
