Abstract

The purpose of this comment is to provide a prospective definition for the term "inadequate performance" as it is used in the North Carolina Tenured Teacher Fair Dismissal Act. Through this effort, we hope that school boards and professional educators gain insight into the potential statutory constructions of "inadequate performance" and plan to avoid protracted litigation concerning a teacher's dismissal in North Carolina specifically on the grounds of "inadequate performance."
