Directs State Board of Education to authorize issuance of new endorsements in certain fields.
Introduced First Reading Assembly Referred to AED
Summary
The measure requires the State Board of Education to create three new endorsements for instructional certificates: one for teaching students with disabilities (preschool‑12, except blind/visually impaired and deaf/hard of hearing), one for teaching kindergarten‑grade 8, and one for bilingual and bicultural instruction (preschool‑12). Current teachers with a pre‑existing special‑education endorsement can apply for the new disability endorsement, and the Board must adopt rules to implement the changes. The bill takes effect immediately.
