Bill Summary
Amending the act of March 10, 1949 (P.L.30, No.14), entitled "An act relating to the public school system, including certain provisions applicable as well to private and parochial schools; amending, revising, consolidating and changing the laws relating thereto," in professional employees, further providing for qualifications; and, in certification of teachers, further providing for State certificates.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Public School Code of 1949 to further provide for the qualifications of professional employees (such as teachers) and the issuance of State certificates. Specifically, it allows non-U.S. citizens to be hired as teachers if they hold a valid immigrant visa, work visa, or employment authorization document that allows them to work in the United States. The bill removes the previous requirement that non-U.S. citizens holding an immigrant visa declare their intention to become a U.S. citizen in order to be eligible for a provisional college certificate.
