Tenure
Teachers' tenure framework is not for functional chapter members: Functional chapter members, including social workers and psychologists, should be aware that principals may not use the teacher tenure framework as a rubric to assess functional chapter members' performance or make tenure decisions. The tenure framework only applies to tenure decisions for classroom teachers. If you have any questions, you can contact your chapter representative.
