What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill prohibits a school board from requiring its teachers to perform any

services outside of regular classroom instruction unless the school board either

compensates the teacher for his or her time or the teacher volunteers to perform the

services. Under current law, a school must provide each teacher a daily duty-free

30-minute lunch period, or the school board may enter into a contract with a teacher

for services during the teacher's lunch period.
