HR Update: Certified Staff Last Day to Resign – 6/2/17

From Amy Jo Troyer
The last day for teachers, or any staff on a teaching contract, to resign without penalty will be June 2, 2017. As you may know, Kansas statute indicates that the last day for teachers to resign without penalty will be 14 calendar days following the third Friday in May. Resignations submitted after that date will be considered a breach of contract and will be subject to liquidated damages.
