The opinion

ON MOTION FOR REHEARING

PER CURIAM.

We deny the appellees’ motions for rehearing. However, pursuant to Fla.R. App.P. 9.030(a)(2)(A)(v), we certify the following question to be of great public importance:

DOES A COUNTY SCHOOL BOARD HAVE THE RIGHT, BY VIRTUE OF THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 231.-031, FLORIDA STATUTES, TO REFUSE TO REHIRE A TEACHER ON AN ANNUAL CONTRACT ON THE SOLE BASIS THAT SUCH TEACHER HAS REACHED AGE 70?

JOANOS and NIMMONS, JJ., concur.

SHIVERS, J., dissents with written opinion.
