Summary

The bill broadens what counts as egregious misconduct for school employees, requires the Teacher Credentialing Commission to build a data system that tracks such reports, and forces districts and schools to check that system before hiring. It also bars certificated teachers who have been formally disciplined for egregious misconduct from any education‑related job in the state. The changes aim to improve student safety and ensure transparent hiring.
