SUMMARY AS PASSED SENATE: (all summaries)
School boards; teachers; planning time and planning periods.

The bill permits local school boards and teachers to enter into an appropriate contractual arrangement providing for compensation in lieu of such planning time or period.

The provisions of the bill are contingent on funding in a general appropriation act.
