Bill > HB13

This bill amends the Teacher Residency Act in New Mexico to make several changes to the state's teacher residency program. The key provisions include: establishing new requirements for the program, such as competitive admission criteria, a full academic year of guided apprenticeship, and providing stipends for residents, mentor teachers, and program coordinators; expanding reporting requirements to track various measures of program success, including diversity of residents, student academic performance, and teacher retention; and making an appropriation to fund the program. The goal is to diversify the teaching profession, fill high-need teaching positions, and ensure residents are prepared for a teaching license upon completion of the program.
