HB 1781 Teachers; extends sunset provision for division superintendent to report shortages to school board.

Introduced by: Mamye E. BaCote | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles

SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Critical teacher shortage areas.  Extends from 2005 to 2010 the current sunset on the requirements that (i) division superintendents identify and report critical shortages to the school board, upon request (§ 22.1-70.3); and (ii) local school boards identify and report critical shortages to the Superintendent of Public Instruction and the Virginia Retirement System (VRS)(§ 22.1-79).

The measure does not address use of this reported information by VRS.

Also sunsetting in 2005, and not included in this bill, is the requirement that the Superintendent of Public Instruction annually survey school divisions to identify critical teacher shortage areas and report these shortages to the Virginia Retirement System (§ 22.1-23). This bill is identical to SB 761.
