Revision History: Reviewed 12/14/2020

Certificated employees shall be recommended for hiring by the Superintendent with the final approval by the Board of Education prior to hiring. Final approval must be made by formal motion of the Board of Education. The final approval by the Board of Education should generally follow closely the recommendation of the Superintendent whenever possible, but such approval of recommendation is not mandatory on the Board of Education.

All contracts for employment of a teacher or administrator to be effective must meet the following conditions:

1. The contract must be in writing and contain such provisions as are required by law.

2. The employed person must hold a valid teaching or administrative certificate at all times.

3. The employed person must not be under contract to another district in this state.

4. The contract must be approved by at least five (5) school Board members and signed by a designated member of the Board.

No member of the Board of Education may cast a vote in favor of the election of any teacher when such member of the Board is related to him or her or to the majority of the Board by blood or marriage.
