AI Summary

This bill authorizes certain students majoring in education at colleges or universities to be granted substitute teaching permits and to be paid the same rate as substitute teachers. The bill allows individuals who are currently enrolled in a teacher preparation program and have completed at least 60 semester hours of courses to serve as substitute teachers for up to 10 consecutive days per school year. The substitute teaching permit is valid for one year and can be renewed for an additional year if the individual completes an additional 15 credit hours and remains enrolled in a college or university in the Commonwealth. The individuals will receive a salary set by the governing body of the school district, area vocational-technical school, or charter school, but they will not have the right to enroll in the public school employees' retirement system.
