Probationary Contract. All teachers new to the district will be employed on a probationary contract for one year, and will continue on one-year probationary contracts until qualified for and awarded indefinite contract status. On or before April 15, the Associate Superintendent of Human Resources or their designee shall notify in writing probationary teachers whose contracts will not be renewed. The Associate Superintendent of Human Resources or designee will provide the HNEA president a list of probationary teachers whose contracts will not be renewed ten (10) days prior to notifying the probationary teacher. Upon request the notice shall include a concise statement of the reason or reasons for nonrenewal. Probationary teachers not notified before April 15 shall be employed for the next school year under the terms of the contract for the preceding year. Probationary teachers who are informed of re-election by written notice shall be tendered a contract on or before May 15, and shall provide written notices of acceptance or rejection within 15 calendar days of receiving the contract. If the fifteenth calendar day falls on a non-work day, acceptance or rejection must be received by the second work day following the fifteenth calendar day. Failure to provide notice within this period is a rejection of the Board of Education's offer. Any teacher employed under a part-time contract by the district shall accrue credit toward permanent status on a prorated basis.
