The bill mandates formal hearings where staff members can present their case for reemployment, with the school board attorney present. It requires the staff member to provide relevant materials to the board attorney three days before the hearing. The board's decision on nonrenewal must be in writing, detailing the facts, evidence, and rationale. Remote hearings must maintain active video functionality for all board members except during formal breaks.
