Bill Summary

Relative to retirement benefits for teachers. Public Service.

AI Summary

This bill aims to provide additional retirement benefits for teachers in Massachusetts. Specifically, it allows certain teachers who previously did not elect to participate in the alternative superannuation retirement benefit program to now make a one-time election to do so. The bill also ensures that teachers who leave the classroom to work for the state's education department can retain their "teacher" status and continue participating in the teachers' retirement system or the State-Boston retirement system, without any interruption in their membership or service. This allows them to maintain their retirement benefits even after transitioning to a state-level education position.
