Even as an untenured teacher, excessing does not mean that you are out of a job. When you are excessed, you lose your position in your school, but you do not lose your job, your salary or your medical benefits. You will have the opportunity to find another position, and if you do not, you will be placed in a school in your district, or elsewhere in your borough if there is a school with a vacancy or a long-term leave coverage need in your license area.
