School District Guidance on Mutual Consent

VISIT RESOURCE WEBSITE

Developed by The New Teacher Project (TNTP) through its partnership with the Colorado Legacy Foundation (CLF), this document provides guidance to Colorado school districts in establishing a system of effective mutual consent hiring for teachers. The information and recommendations provided in this document are based on the provisions of S.B. 10-191 requiring mutual consent hiring, and on the experiences and lessons learned by TNTP in implementing mutual consent hiring in school districts across the United States. This guidance is not intended to be legal advice to school districts; rather, CLF and TNTP believe this document can serve as a practical road-map for school districts in how to go about evaluating and revising their current teacher hiring policies and practices as they plan for implementation of mutual consent hiring.
