Bill Summary
Bob Jordan Teaching Fellows Restoration Act
AI Summary
This bill, the Bob Jordan Teaching Fellows Restoration Act, aims to restore and expand the North Carolina Teaching Fellows Program. The key provisions include:
1. Redefining the program's purpose to recruit, prepare, and support students for teaching in North Carolina public schools, rather than specifically for STEM or special education.
2. Expanding the number of participating institutions of higher education in the program from 5 to 17, including both UNC system schools and private universities.
3. Increasing the recurring funding for the program by $2,987,500 per year, with the goal of providing a total of 2,000 forgivable loan slots by the 2024-2025 academic year.
4. Modifying the loan forgiveness requirements to focus on teaching in any public school, rather than only STEM or special education areas, and providing additional support through the North Carolina New Teacher Support Program.
5. Applying these changes to the administration of the program starting July 1, 2020.
