Tenure Laws In Georgia And Tennessee: Opinion
Number of pages:
3
ABSTRACT:
3 pages in length. Having tenure is looked upon more as a right than a privilege; a profession where one can be locked into job security until reaching retirement is an opportunity handed to very few industries. While teaching is certainly an honorable occupation and one very much lacking talented candidates to fill the ever-growing gap, it is also a career in which myriad people become complacent, lazy and ineffective. The extent to which tenure protects those who have lost the true vision that is the gift of education is both grand and far-reaching; that both Georgia and Tennessee have laws on the books that make it a difficult process to dismiss a tenured teacher even when he or she has breached his or her contract by failing to properly instruct students speaks to the idea behind tenure as a lifelong safeguard for economic security.
