What’s in it

AI summary Teachers who do not have a contract for the next school year can resign by giving a written notice to their school district. This new rule changes the deadline for that notice to either a date set by the school board or during the month of June. Teachers still have a certain amount of time to decide after they are offered a new contract.1

This bill relates to a teacher’s filing of a written resignation with the board of directors of a school district. Under current law, a teacher who has not accepted a contract for the ensuing school year may resign effective at the end of the current school year by filing a written resignation with the secretary of the employing board not later than the last day of the current school year or the date specified by the employing board, whichever date occurs first. Current law also provides that a teacher shall not be required to return a contract to the employing board or to resign less than days after the contract has been offered. The bill requires that the teacher file the written resignation on or before the date specified by the employing board or June of the current school year, provided that a teacher shall not be required to return a contract to the employing board or to resign less than days after the contract has been offered.
