Legal Question in Education Law in California

teachers contracts

In a private catholic school when does a teacher's contract become effective? Contracts are given to teachers who sign them and then returned to principal who signs it and returnas it to teacher. Thank You.

Re: teachers contracts

Hello!

Generally a contract becomes a valid and binding (enforcable) contract when BOTH parties (in your fact scenario) execute and deliver to eachother.

It is somewhat like a tree falling in the forest!

Oral contracts may operate differently, but in your case, binding when signed.

I hope this has been helpful

Respectfuly,
