[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] Teacher "contracts" at privates now are like "jumbo shrimp" as oxymorons. They can be fired anytime and can quit anytime. The only purpose of the contract is to spell out the terms of their employment and compensation if both sides continue to agree they will work there for the entire school year. It's also easier for the school not to offer a new contract for the following year if they are not satisfied with the teacher's work but don't have any actual cause to terminate the teacher immediately.[/quote]
