What is the difference between dismissal and nonrenewal? What
will this mean for you as you enter the profession? Answer in
your own words. - ANSWER-A dismissal is a request placed by
the superintendent for a teacher to leave for various reasons that
indicate the teacher is doing something explicitly wrong. A
nonrenewal is when a principal does not want to continue
employing a teacher so they request to not renew the contract
that they have. In both situations at the teacher you can request
for a hearing and essentially fight back. It is good to know that
you have this option incase something unfair happens to you.
Considering what you know about the difference between
dismissal and nonrenewal, and the information from the
article/website, where do you stand on teacher tenure in public
K-12 education? - ANSWER-I believe that tenure is a necessary
component to have so that schools do not take advantage of
teachers. The fear of a teacher taking advantage of tenure by
underperforming is real. However, tenure does not mean that
they cannot be fired so there are still real consequences for
misconduct despite the process taking longer. In a healthy
system, tenure should help motivate teachers to do better and be
creative while providing a sense of confidence in job security.
