Bill overview
This bill establishes employment stability for high school athletic coaches in New Jersey. It requires head coaches who are tenured employees or out-of-district hires to receive three-year contracts, while assistant coaches receive two-year contracts. The bill also outlines procedures for dismissal, including just cause requirements, written notice, and the right to a hearing before the school board. It provides protections against arbitrary dismissal and ensures coaches receive a clear explanation for any negative employment actions.
