Attorney General Opinions

Bargained for random drug testing program for public school teachers with appropriate procedural protections is constitutional and would not violate either the federal or state Constitution. If a court were to find such a program to violate either the federal or state Constitution, the doctrine of qualified immunity would bar personal liability for any state official; if a court were to impose personal liability, based upon past history and practice, the legislature would fund payment of the claims. Att. Gen. Op. 08-1.

§302A-619 Classification, educational officers. The board shall classify all educational officer positions of the department and shall adopt two separate classification/compensation plans for educational officers. One classification/compensation plan shall be for principals and vice-principals and shall be based on the general pattern of a school administrator's career development and associated school administrator's qualification requirements. A separate classification/compensation plan shall be for all other educational officers and shall be reflective of the career development pattern and qualification requirements for the respective professional field of expertise; provided that both classification/compensation plans shall include classification appeals procedures.
