Bill > S2770

This bill removes the requirement that executive county superintendents, who are appointed by the Governor to oversee school districts within a county and report to the Commissioner of Education, must hold a specific certificate issued by the State Board of Examiners, which is an entity responsible for issuing professional credentials for educators. The bill amends existing law by deleting the phrase "holds an appropriate certificate issued pursuant to this title and who" from the qualifications for this position, thereby allowing individuals without this particular certification to be considered for the role, while still requiring them to be state residents for at least three years and to be deemed suitable by the Governor upon the recommendation of the commissioner.
