ATRS Retirement Workshops

Due to the ongoing public health crisis, ATRS Retirement Workshops have been canceled out of an abundance of safety for our members and staff. New this year, ATRS has launched prerecorded presentations of the retirement sessions (A&S Entering T-Drop, A&S Retirement, A&S Exiting T-Drop) and may be viewed at your convenience on our website artrs.gov located under Member Topics “Preretirement Workshops and Counseling”.

In addition, school visits have also been canceled until further notice. Members are encouraged to contact our office with questions about their account and benefit estimate.

Retirement counselors are available to assist our members from 8:00 a.m.- 4:30 p.m. weekdays and can be reached at 501-682-1517, or email info@artrs.gov.
