• HB 2140 - Repeals the entire Career Ladder Program (effective immediately - no phase out).
• HB 2226 - Repeals the special session education policy changes and then reinserts them into statute. This bill would eliminate AEA's legal argument in our lawsuit (since the legislature will move to re-enact the policy changes during a regular session). In addition, the 5 percent cap that the legislature attempted to place on Career Ladder Districts during the special session is moved to begin in FY11.
• HB 2227 - Requires teachers to return their contracts within 10 days. Current statute allows a 30-day window.
• HB 2239 - Requires a school board to include in a teacher performance evaluation system "an objective assessment of the academic performance of students who are instructed by the teacher."
