Bill > HB3222

This bill requires any school district or charter school to immediately terminate the employment of an employee if that employee attempts to resign while being investigated for sexual misconduct with a student, regardless of whether the investigation is ongoing or has reached a conclusion. This provision is intended to prevent individuals accused of sexual misconduct from avoiding consequences by resigning before an investigation is complete. The bill also clarifies that such a termination does not end the investigation itself, and any substantiated findings of sexual misconduct will still be reported as required by law.
