Summary

The bill would mandate that any school corporation unable to set a $60,000 minimum salary for full‑time teachers, starting after June 30 2027, must receive a formal notice from the state department and publicly acknowledge the shortfall. The governing body would have to record the notice, publish it and related reports on the district’s website, and could remove the notices only after meeting the salary floor. The measure aims to increase transparency around teacher pay gaps.
