What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill clarifies that the requirements in the national teacher certification

and master educator licensure grant program related to an individual being placed

in a performance category in an educator effectiveness evaluation system apply only

to those individuals who must be evaluated under an educator effectiveness

evaluation system. Current law requires each school board and the operator of each

independent charter school to use an educator effectiveness evaluation system to

evaluate teachers and principals in the school district or charter school. Current law

does not require the governing body of a private school to use an educator

effectiveness evaluation system to evaluate teachers and principals at the private

school.

This bill also eliminates duplicative language requiring the Department of

Public Instruction to promulgate administrative rules governing teacher education

programs in this state.
