Bill Summary
AN ACT RELATING TO PUBLIC SCHOOLS; AMENDING THE PUBLIC SCHOOL CODE TO INCREASE MINIMUM TEACHERS' SALARIES.
AI Summary
This bill aims to increase the minimum salaries for teachers in New Mexico. It amends the state's Public School Code to raise the minimum salaries for level one teachers to $34,000, level two teachers to $42,000, and level three-A teachers (the highest level for instructional leaders) to $52,000 for a standard 9.5-month contract. The bill also removes language that previously delayed the implementation of the minimum salary framework until the state Department of Education adopted increased competencies and a statewide evaluation standard. The changes are set to take effect on July 1, 2017.
