Common use of Employees Hired Under Temporary Teaching License Clause in Contracts

Employees Hired Under Temporary Teaching License. Any certified employee hired as a contract teacher whose employment is contingent upon a temporary teaching license while they complete the state requirements for full licensure in that subject matter, shall be considered a temporary teaching employee. During that period, the temporary teacher shall not be entitled to apply for other vacancies (excluding supplementals), shall be automatically nonrenewed at the end of that year, and shall have no recall rights. If that teacher is rehired for the following year, she/he will have all rights and benefits of the contract, including seniority credit for the period of service as a temporary teaching employee. Should the employee complete the necessary requirements to obtain licensure before the end of the first semester and place on file a completion letter from the university, the board will issue a standard limited contract for the balance of current school year. Temporary employment contract will continue as long as employee is still completing the full licensure requirements. Once the certified employee has completed all state requirements for full licensure, and as long as the position is still in existence, said employee will be rehired under a standard limited contract and she/he will have all rights and benefits of the contract, including seniority credit for the period of service as a temporary teaching employee.
