Can a teacher be dismissed for unprofessional conduct?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Perez v. Commission On Professional Competence, 149 Cal.App.3d 1167, 197 Cal.Rptr. 390 (Cal. App. 1983):
Having concluded dismissal for unprofessional conduct cannot stand, we turn to the remaining charge of dismissal for incompetence. A particular act or omission on the part of a teacher may constitute more than one of the causes for his removal under section 44932. (Tarquin v. Commission on Professional Competence (1978) 84 Cal.App.3d 251, 148 Cal.Rptr. 522.) It follows the same acts or omissions may constitute grounds for removal for incompetence or unprofessional conduct.
