Synopsis Grievant, teacher, tendered her resignation effective January 23. Respondent refused to accept it before January 30, and the Superintendent warned her that if she failed to work between January 23-30, he might recommend her dismissal for willful neglect of duty. She did not report after January 23 and her dismissal was recommended before January 30. DECISION: This Grievance Board is without jurisdiction. W.Va. Code 18A-2-8 requires the Board of Education to act on, and adopt, such recommendations before a 18-29-2(a) grievance exists.
