Modifies provisions governing certificates of license to teach

Summary

The bill replaces the existing rule on teacher licenses, giving the state board of education authority to refuse, not renew, or discipline a license if the holder commits a felony, fraud, incompetence, or certain sexual or child‑related offenses. It also permits school districts and the state education department to file charges that can trigger discipline. The changes are intended to better protect students by tightening who can be licensed to teach.
