SB 113 Teacher licensure.
Introduced by: H. Russell Potts, Jr. | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)
Teacher licensure. Establishes a mechanism for local school boards to issue three-year local teacher licenses. Such licenses would only be valid within the issuing school division, would not entitle the holder to continuing contract status, would not be renewable, and could be conditioned upon the completion of additional training. No more than ten percent of the classroom teachers employed by the relevant local school division may hold such local licenses, based on the number of classroom teachers employed by the school division during the preceding school year. The holder of a locally issued license would be a probationary teacher for the entire three years, would be eligible to apply for a regular license issued by the Department of Education upon satisfaction of the relevant requirements, and would be subject to and entitled to all other requirements and rights provided in law and regulation. No applicant could be issued a local license if such person is eligible to be licensed by the Department of Education. This bill amends several existing licensure/terms of employment statutes to provide the appropriate references, etc. to the local licensure procedure.
