Bill > HB3671

This bill modifies the definition of a "career teacher" for evaluation purposes, specifically impacting how teachers gain this status after the 2017-2018 school year. Previously, a teacher could become a career teacher by completing three consecutive years in one district or by meeting certain evaluation and tenure requirements. This bill adds a new provision, allowing a teacher who has already achieved career teacher status in one school district to be recognized as a career teacher in another district if the new district's board of education approves it. The bill also clarifies that this status is solely for evaluation purposes and sets an effective date of November 1, 2026.
