Subscribe to the Teachers After Dark Podcast here for access to ALL of our exclusive content!!
If you're a Texas teacher facing the threat of termination, this is your reminder: you have rights — and you don’t have to fold under pressure. In this episode, we’re breaking down what actually happens when a district moves to terminate your contract, why you should never feel bullied into resigning without a full understanding of your options, and how standing your ground could protect your career and your future.
We’ll talk about your right to a hearing under Texas Education Code Chapter 21, how to officially request it, what the process looks like, and what’s really at stake if you give up your due process rights too quickly.
