Current law directs DPI to award a grant to any teacher who is certified by the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards or licensed by DPI as a master educator. A person awarded a grant is eligible for additional grants over the succeeding nine years.
Beginning with grants awarded in 2014-15, this bill requires that a person who is receiving a grant and is licensed as a master educator have and maintain a rating of "effective" or "highly effective" in the applicable educator effectiveness system.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
