Repealing a provision of law that requires a teacher preparation program to require a student to pass a certain assessment as a graduation requirement; altering the requirements for initial teacher certification; authorizing a local school system to establish a comprehensive induction program to aid in meeting a certain requirement for initial teacher certification; and altering the qualification requirements for a teacher who holds a professional license or certificate from another state.
AI Summary
This bill repeals the requirement for teacher preparation programs to require students to pass a certain assessment as a graduation requirement. It alters the requirements for initial teacher certification, including allowing local school systems to establish comprehensive induction programs as an alternative to passing a nationally recognized, portfolio-based assessment of teaching ability. The bill also changes the qualification requirements for teachers who hold a professional license or certificate from another state, allowing them to complete a comprehensive induction program instead of passing an examination of teaching ability.
