AI Summary
This bill modifies the definition of a "career teacher" in Oklahoma law, which refers to a teacher who has achieved a certain level of experience and performance. Specifically, it adds a new provision allowing a teacher to gain career status in a new school district if they have already met the requirements in a previous district and the new district's board of education approves it. The bill also clarifies that teachers employed before the 2017-2018 school year who meet specific criteria can also be considered career teachers. The legislation is set to take effect on July 1, 2026, and is declared an emergency, meaning it will be in full force immediately after its passage and approval to address an urgent public need.
