Current Certified Employees: 15-Year Experience Cap Lifted

 

Previously, Hamilton County Schools and Hamilton County Education Association (HCEA) held an agreement that the maximum eligible teaching experience credited from outside of HCS would be 15 years.  Due to the outcome of collaborative conferencing with HCEA this year, HCS will lift the maximum cap of outside accredited teaching experience for new and current certified employees starting with the 2021-2022 school year.

If you have accredited teaching experience beyond 15 years that was not credited, please complete this form with attached experience forms.
