The Superintendent shall provide the Board with his/her recommendations regarding the non-retention of certificated employees.

The Board may decide not to rehire a non-tenured employee at the end of his/her first, second, or third year and give written notice of its decision to the employee at any time during the year. If the Board does not give non-tenured teachers written notice of non-retention by the last day of the school term, the employee shall be rehired for the following year.

Non-retention of non-tenured teachers may be based on any cause deemed adequate by the Superintendent or, if an informal Board hearing is held, any cause deemed adequate by the Board. The Superintendent shall establish administrative regulations which provide appeal procedures for the non-retention of non-tenured teachers, including the opportunity for an informal hearing before the Board.

The non-retention of tenured teachers shall comply with the cause and procedural requirements specified in law.
