SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)

Teacher proficiency; continuing contract status. Provides that any teacher hired on or after July 1, 2001, will be required, as a condition of achieving continuing contract status, to have successfully completed training in instructional strategies and techniques for intervention for or remediation of students who fail or are at risk of failing the Standards of Learning assessments. Local school divisions will be required to provide the training at no cost to teachers employed in their division. In the event a local school division fails to offer the training in a timely manner, no teacher will be denied continuing contract status for failure to obtain such training. This bill is identical to HB 2514.
