The length of the contract for employment between an administrator and the board is determined by the board. The contract will state the length of the contract and the terms of employment.
The first three consecutive years of a contract issued to a newly employed administrator will be considered a probationary period. The probationary period may be extended for an additional year upon the consent of the administrator. In the event of termination of a probationary or non-probationary contract, the board will afford the administrator appropriate due process, as required by law. The administrator and board may mutually agree to terminate the administrator's contract.
It is the responsibility of the superintendent to create a contract for each administrative position. The board may issue temporary and nonrenewable contracts in accordance with law.
If an administrator wishes to resign, to be released from a contract, or to retire, the administrator must comply with board policies dealing with retirement, release, or resignation.
