C.R.S. Section 22-60.5-207
Alternative teacher contracts

(1)

Alternative teacher contracts may include terms and conditions that:

(a)

Differ from any terms and conditions of contracts of the school district or charter school for first-year employees who are licensed other than as alternative teachers;

(b)

Define those conditions unique to the responsibilities and duties of an alternative teacher and the alternative teacher program of the school district or charter school;

(c)

Establish the right of the employing school district or charter school to terminate the alternative teacher contract at any time during the first three months of employment; however, the employing school district or charter school must only take such action after consideration of a recommendation of the alternative teacher support team for the alternative teacher and is not subject to appeal by the alternative teacher.

(2)

The term of an alternative teacher contract shall be for one or two years; except that an employing school district, nonpublic school, or charter school may extend a one-year alternative teacher contract for only one additional year based on written evidence of unforeseen circumstances that prevent the alternative teacher from completing the one-year alternative teacher program in one year and the expectation of the alternative teacher’s support team that he or she can complete the one-year alternative teacher program in one additional year.

(3)

The provisions of this section do not apply to alternative teacher contracts entered into by nonpublic schools.
