SUMMARY AS ENACTED WITH GOVERNOR'S RECOMMENDATION: (all summaries)

Virginia Teaching Loan Scholarship Program. Extends eligibility for the Virginia Teaching Loan Scholarships to students identified by a school board to teach in a discipline or at a grade level within the school division in which a shortage of teachers exists, as defined in Board of Education regulations, and to students enrolled in any area of an approved teacher education program seeking endorsement in elementary or middle school education. This bill also clarifies that the Board of Education defines critical teacher shortage areas in the Regulations Governing the Determination of Critical Teacher Shortage Areas and that increasing the number of students seeking endorsements in elementary and middle school education and in critical teacher shortage areas and disciplines are among the purposes of this program. This bill is the companion legislation to a budget amendment that makes language, pertaining to the Virginia Teaching Loan Scholarship Program, in the appropriations act for the 2002-2004 biennium, consistent with § 22.1-290.01, the applicable statute.
