As a local hire and NTE, I know basically what to expect but my question is this... I finished the first year of a 2 year NTE,but my principal hasn't told me if I'm not coming back next year (no talking to me or written word) but I am not on the schedule as of yet...am I required to get some sort of notice about not returning for my second year?

Missed your last Q...immediately accept the offer even with Step 1 indicated.

HelpOthers For everyone reading this thread who has not yet received an offer, Go ahead and get the employment verification form completed by your district now. You would would write "present" as the end date. Let your HR know that this is just part of an application for a district where you might not get hired for years and you are NOT giving notic...See More
