Summary
The bill changes Utah law so that school districts can hire non‑licensed teachers for long‑term substitute positions. It still requires a background check and says districts should prioritize licensed educators when they are available. This expands the pool of substitute teachers and eliminates the prior restriction on how long a non‑licensed substitute can work in a classroom.
