Teacher certification; Military Veteran Temporary Teaching Certificate established

Summary

The bill lets the State Board of Education issue a one‑time, five‑year temporary teaching certificate to veterans who have served at least 48 months and meet specific college, testing and background criteria. It aims to expand the pool of qualified teachers by allowing veterans to teach in fields that normally require a bachelor's degree. Recipients must work under a mentor for at least two years and cannot use the certificate toward permanent service status.
