Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend 118.60 (2) (a) 6. a. and 119.23 (2) (a) 6. a.; to create 118.60 (2) (a) 6. e. and 119.23 (2) (a) 6. d. of the statutes; relating to: allowing individuals who hold a substitute teaching permit to substitute teach at pri- vate schools participating in a parental choice program.

AI Summary

This bill allows individuals holding a substitute teacher permit, which is a temporary credential issued by the department (referring to the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction), to substitute teach at private schools that are part of a parental choice program. Previously, these private schools were generally required to have all their teachers either hold a full teaching license or possess at least a bachelor's degree from an accredited institution. This bill amends existing statutes (118.60 and 119.23) to create exceptions, specifically allowing substitute teachers with permits to work in these choice program schools, thereby expanding the pool of available substitute educators for participating private institutions.
