What’s in it

This bill provides that if an employment contract between a school board and an administrator provides for one or more severance payments, the contract shall contain a statement that the administrator shall not receive such payments if the contract is terminated as a result of the administrator being found guilty in a criminal proceeding on a charge relating to the administrator’s official duties or a dereliction thereof for which the period for appeal has passed, other than a proceeding regarding a simple misdemeanor or a parking violation. The bill applies to contracts entered into or continued on or after the effective date of the bill.
