Pinks slips sent to Santa Rosa teachers

Santa Rosa teachers were mailed pink slips last week as Santa Rosa County School District tries to cope with shrinking budget. The teachers without tenure are being told that their contracts will not be renewed for the 2009-10 school year.

Positions may open up, but the nontenured teachers aren’t guaranteed their jobs back. We have been hearing rumors that the average number of terminations is 13 teachers per school.
