What it does

This bill relates to substitute teacher authorizations for student teachers. The bill requires the board of educational examiners (BOEE) to issue a student teacher substitute authorization that allows a student who is enrolled in a practitioner preparation program and who is participating in the student teaching experience to substitute in the classroom in which the student teaching experience is taking place for the student’s cooperating teacher who is absent. The bill prohibits the BOEE from charging a fee for this authorization.
