[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are having the same issue at our K-8 with teachers leaving mid year. Are teachers hired as at will employees where they could resign anytime? Shouldn't they have contracts for each school year? I understand family and health emergencies happen but the changes have been way too frequent at our school this year. [/quote] "At-will" typically refers to employees working at the will of their employer, who can terminate at-will employees at anytime. We outlawed slavery a long time ago, so no employee is required to work for a particular employer, regardless of whether or not they have an employment contract. There may be penalties associated with an employee leaving before their contractual term - like an obligation to repay bonuses or forfeiture of other things - but an employment contract can't prohibit a teacher from leaving.
