The Brill Legal Group Stands Up For Tenured Public School Teachers

​ [[{"value":"

New York, New York – Tenured public school teachers have the right to retain their positions and may only be terminated if there is “just cause,” according to Education Law §3020.

Rules relating to terminating a tenured public school teacher have changed significantly since 2012, with more recent changes implemented in July 2015. For further information on the forms and process involved in terminating a tenured public school teacher is available here.

Such hearings can be complicated and fraught with uncertainty, fear of losing a job, and anxiety. “Facing a disciplinary inquiry presents the possibility of a loss of a professional license, as well as employment eligibility,” explained Peter Brill of the Brill Legal Group.

Those facing a disciplinary hearing that may result in termination need top-caliber legal assistance. “The Brill Legal Group stands up for teachers at public schools by utilizing aggressive defenses to protect their livelihood and professional licenses,” Brill added.

The Brill Legal Group goes to bat for tenured public school teachers and ensures they receive the proper assistance needed to avert suspension or termination. If such measures are not taken quickly, a tenured teacher may have to wait up to three years to have a license restored.

There are certain situations in which a tenured teacher may have an expedited disciplinary hearing. The following situations can expedite a teacher’s disciplinary hearing:

The revocation of their certification.

The sexual or physical abuse of a student.

Two consecutive ineffective Annual Professional Performance Rating (APPR) ratings.

Three consecutive ineffective APPR ratings.
