HF 2088: Relating to teacher licensure renewal requirements and professional development activities for practitioners

Died when the session ended · The 2020 session adjourned on June 14, 2020, the General Assembly’s last regular session. Bills that didn’t pass both chambers died.

What it does

This bill provides that state moneys calculated and paid to school districts for professional development activities cannot be used for such activities at an amusement park itself and directs that the board of educational examiners’ rules must provide that time spent engaged in professional development activities at an amusement park itself cannot be used to meet license renewal requirements. However, if such activities are held in a conference facility or meeting room on amusement park property, state moneys can be used for the activities and the activities can be used to meet licensure renewal requirements.
