Bill Summary
This bill provides one-time funds to support the Maine Teacher Residency Program at the University of Southern Maine.
AI Summary
This bill provides a one-time appropriation of $1,000,000 from the General Fund in the fiscal year 2025-26 to support the Maine Teacher Residency Program at the University of Southern Maine. The funding is specifically designated to bolster the program, which is likely designed to help new teachers gain practical classroom experience and support their early career development through a structured residency model. The bill allocates the full million-dollar amount in the first year (2025-26) and shows zero funding for the subsequent fiscal year (2026-27), suggesting this is a single, targeted investment to enhance teacher training and recruitment in the state of Maine.
