[quote=Anonymous]I'm so annoyed by this important discussion being derailed by misinformation about teacher tenure. Teachers did not cause these kids' deaths by suicide. Depression did. There is NO teacher tenure in Virginia. None. People are profoundly misinformed. Teachers reach continuing contract status after 3 years, but they are still subject tho the same evaluation and observation cycles, it's just that the summarize evaluation is every three yard rather than every year. Still, the system can out a teacher on admin leave for malfeasance, and can fire a teacher with due process by documenting deficiencies and giving the teacher an opportunity to improve. It doesn't actually take much to document and fire a teacher. In addition, many principals have the power to pressure a tea her to resign by threatening their teaching license. It's done all the time when principals want a teacher out ASAP.[/quote]
