SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)

National Teacher Certification Incentive Reward Program. Establishes, from such funds as may be appropriated and from such gifts, donations, grants, bequests, and other funds as may be received, the National Teacher Certification Incentive Reward Program and Fund. Administered by the Board of Education, this initiative provides incentive grants to public school teachers obtaining national certification from the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards (NBPTS). To the extent funds are available, initial awards are set at $5,000, with subsequent annual awards of $2,500 for the life of the certificate. The Board is to establish procedures for determining amounts of awards when funds are insufficient to meet these targeted amounts. The Board may issue guidelines governing the Program as it deems necessary and appropriate.
