391.350  Suspension or revocation of license for employee’s failure to fulfill employment obligations or breach of contract; suspension or revocation of administrator’s license for wrongfully securing employee’s acceptance of employment; notice to other agencies of revocation.

      1.  Any teacher or other licensed employee employed by any board for a specified time who willfully refuses or fails to fulfill his or her employment obligations after the employee has notified the board of his or her acceptance of employment under subsection 3 of NRS 391.3196 or subsection 2 of NRS 391.3197 or to comply with the provisions of his or her contract after it has been signed without first obtaining the written consent of the board may be found guilty of unprofessional conduct. The board shall not unreasonably withhold its consent. Any administrator who willfully secures the signature on a statement of intent to accept employment of any teacher or other licensed employee who has notified the board of another school district in this State of his or her acceptance of employment is guilty of unprofessional conduct, unless the employee has first obtained the written consent of the board to which he or she has given notice of acceptance. If the failure or refusal to comply with the provisions of the contract is the result of having subsequently executed an employment contract with another board in this State without the written consent of the board first employing him or her, the second contract is void.

      2.  Upon receiving a formal complaint from the board, substantiated by conclusive evidence of a teacher’s failure or refusal under subsection 1 or that an administrator has willfully secured such a signature, the State Board may suspend or revoke the license of the teacher or administrator after notice and opportunity for a hearing have been provided pursuant to NRS 391.322 and 391.323.

      3.  The Superintendent of Public Instruction shall notify state agencies for education in other states of any revocation pursuant to this section.
