(KAIR)--The Board of Education for Atchison’s Public Schools moved forward this week with the non-renewal of a Tenured Teacher’s Contract following the completion of due process procedures.
Finalization of the termination of Monica Beien came during a special meeting of the USD 409 Board of Education Wednesday morning.
Beien was informed by the Board in April of their intent to not renew her contract for the 2022-2023 school year, at first placing her on suspension, with pay.
The termination comes through what the Board of Education says were violations of district policy, including failure to maintain professional integrity as an educator, by unprofessional conduct with students and administrators; and underming the authority of building administration.
Beien, after being informed of the board’s plans to non-renew her contract, was allowed due process through an administrative hearing, which she first agreed to then later waived.
Beien has served as both a teacher and coach in the district during her years of employment that began with her hiring in August, 2003.
