District of Innovation Proposed Amendment

                                                  Amendment Proposal
                              for the San Augustine ISD District of Innovation
 
Probationary Teacher Contracts
(DCA Legal) (TEC 21 .102)

Currently
A probationary contract may not exceed one year for new teachers to our district who have been employed as a teacher in public education for at least five of the eight years preceding employment by the district. Under this circumstance, the district must either give the teacher a term contract or terminate their contract after their first year in the district.
 
Proposed
SAISD would like to have the ability to renew the probationary contract one additional one-year period, for a maximum of two school years, for all teachers that are new to the district who have been employed as a teacher in public education for at least five of eight years preceding employment by the District.
