I have a question. I resigned from my position just last week. The thing is that I never signed a contract (in fact the district is working without one this year). I never received any paperwork of my new position ( I was a sub last year). However I was told that I would still be held to 60 days because I was approved in the board minutes in June for the position. Is this correct?
