Introduced by: Jeion A. Ward | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS PASSED HOUSE: (all summaries)
Virginia Teaching Scholarship Loan Program; revisions. Revises and reorganizes the section to make it consistent with language in the general appropriation act. The bill revises the intent of the Program, so that it is established to (i) increase the number of teacher candidates pursuing careers in critical teacher shortage areas, as defined by the Board of Education; (ii) expand eligibility to teacher candidates, including graduate students and paraprofessionals, enrolled full-time or part-time in approved teacher education programs; and (iii) increase diversity of persons pursuing careers in teaching, including male teacher candidates enrolled in elementary or middle school education programs and minority teacher candidates enrolled in any teaching endorsement area.
The bill also eliminates the Diversity in Teaching Initiative, as it has not been funded.
