What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Under current law, school districts must ensure that every teacher, supervisor, administrator, and professional staff member holds a certificate, license, or permit to teach issued by the Department of Public Instruction before beginning such a position. Additionally, under current law, independent charter schools must ensure that all instructional staff hold a license or permit to teach issued by DPI. While a license issued by DPI is not required to teach in a private school, DPI also issues licenses to teach to teachers in private schools. Under current law, DPI is also responsible for licensing related to public library personnel.
This bill increases the number of positions for DPI by 10.0 positions in fiscal year 2023-24 and provides $1,000,000 for those positions in fiscal years 2023-24 and 2024-25. The new positions are for licensing school and public library personnel.
