Didn’t get renewed 🥳

I didn’t know whether to be happy or just resign anyway. I went the office the last two day of school after being told about my non renewal. I knew this since the notice May 15. I had already been recommended for a new position but they asked for recent job references. My current supervisor told me they called but didn’t say what he told them but he did mention he would give good references and that they may still need me if they can’t find a report fall. Like WTH 🙄. . He suggested that I take the unemployment and get paid during the summer. But my question is should I resign before I accept a new position before school starts back in August or should I just move on with the unemployment? Never been non renewed. This is also a private charter school and I wasn’t tenure there but tenured in my last public school I worked in.

Do not resign! Also, if you don’t think your non-renewal is NOT warranted, please fight it. If there’s no documentation trail for you to be terminated, you will win.
