Bill Summary
The purpose of this bill is to increase the pay of substitute teachers to be the same as a full time teacher.
AI Summary
This bill amends West Virginia law concerning the pay of substitute teachers, specifically changing the existing provision that set their pay at a minimum of eighty percent of a full-time teacher's daily rate, with adjustments for longer assignments. The key change is that substitute teachers will now receive a daily rate equivalent to the advanced salary of a full-time teacher within their county, regardless of how many days they work. The "advanced salary" refers to the higher pay scale for teachers with more experience. This aims to ensure substitute teachers are compensated at the same level as their full-time counterparts.
