Teachers may jeopardize their job security if their off-duty behavior impairs
their work or negatively impacts their school or school district’s
integrity. School districts must follow very specific New Hampshire statutory
law governing the way off-duty activity can affect employment.
In addition, when making decisions regarding dismissal or non-renewal of
teachers, school districts should know there are other employment laws
that could cover the situation.
These materials are intended as a guide to the legal requirements in New
Hampshire.
