A. Whenever the school district board of education or the

administration of a school district shall determine that the

dismissal or nonreemployment of a full-time certified administrator

from the administrative position within the school district should

be effected, the administrator shall be entitled to the following

due process procedures:

1. A statement shall be submitted to the administrator in

writing prior to the dismissal or nonreemployment which states the

proposed action, lists the reasons for effecting the action, and

notifies the administrator of his or her right to a hearing before

the school district board of education prior to the action; and

2. A hearing before the school district board of education

shall be granted upon the request of the administrator prior to the

dismissal or nonreemployment. A request for a hearing shall be

submitted to the board of education not later than ten (10) days

after the administrator has been notified of the proposed action.

B. Failure of the administrator to request a hearing before the

school district board of education within ten (10) days after

receiving the written statement shall constitute a waiver of the

right to a hearing. No decision of the board of education

concerning the dismissal or nonreemployment of a full-time certified

administrator shall be effective until the administrator has been

afforded due process as specified in this section. The decision of

the school district board of education concerning the dismissal or

nonreemployment, following the hearing, shall be final.

C. Beginning with the 2017-2018 school year and thereafter, a

principal who has received district evaluation ratings of

"ineffective" as measured pursuant to the TLE as set forth in

Section 6-101.16 of this title for two (2) consecutive school years

may be dismissed or not reemployed by the school district, subject

to the due process procedures of this section.
