What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill authorizes the state superintendent of public instruction to approve

a teacher preparatory program if the program requires students to complete the

equivalent of the student teaching required under current law, as determined by the

state superintendent by rule. Under current law, the state superintendent may

approve a teacher preparatory program only if students in the program are required

to complete student teaching that consists of full days for a full semester at a

cooperating elementary or secondary school. Current law further specifies that the

hours, days, and semester of student teaching are determined based on the

cooperating school's schedule.
