As Amended
SEC. 37-9-101. Short title; declaration of legislative intent.
Sections 37-9-101 to 37-9-113 shall be known as and cited as the "School Employment Procedures Law of 1977."
It is the intent of the legislature to establish procedures for providing public school employees with notice of the reasons for not offering an employee a renewal of his contract, to provide an opportunity for the employee to present matters in extenuation or exculpation to enable the board to determine whether the recommendation of nonemployment is a proper employment decision and not contrary to law, and not to establish a system of tenure or require that all decisions of nonreemployment be based upon cause with respect to employment in the school district.
