Tenured Teachers

Tenured teachers are educators who have successfully completed a probationary period and earned a permanent position within a school district. This status provides job security and protections against arbitrary dismissal, allowing teachers to continue working unless they choose to leave or are dismissed for just cause, such as misconduct. Tenure encourages experienced teaching and professional growth, while still subject to evaluation and accountability measures. Essentially, it recognizes a teacher’s dedication and skills, offering stability so they can focus on providing quality education without fear of abrupt termination.
