Fired or suspended teachers often get their jobs back in Kentucky
Superintendents want to change appeals system
Personnel decisions are often overturned by tribunals
KEA says current system helps protect teachers’ rights
A teacher in Kentucky can be fired for insubordination, immoral character, conduct unbecoming a teacher, physical or mental disability, inefficiency, incompetence or neglect of duty.
Of six termination or suspension cases in which an educator requested a tribunal in Kentucky in 2015, only two were upheld, according to state education records obtained by the Herald-Leader under the Kentucky Open Records Act.
The cases that were overturned included that of a Warren County teacher who allegedly was overheard giving an unruly student his home address and inviting that student to come to his home and fight him.
