Synopsis
|
COUNTY BOARDS OF EDUCATION HAVE SUBSTANTIAL DISCRETION IN MATTERS RELATING TO THE HIRING, ASSIGNMENT, TRANSFER AND PROMOTION OF SCHOOL PERSONNEL SO LONG AS IT IS EXERCISED REASONABLY AND NOT IN AN ARBITRARY AND CAPRICIOUS MANNER. DECISIONS OF A COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION AFFECTING FILLING OF VACANT TEACHING POSITIONS MUST BE BASED PRIMARILY UPON THE QUALIFICATIONS OF THE APPLICANTS WITH SENIORITY HAVING A BEARING ON THE SELECTION PROCESS WHEN THE DIFFERENCES IN QUALIFICATION CRITERIA ARE INSUFFICIENT TO FORM A BASIS FOR AN INFORMED AND RATIONAL DECISION.
