Introduced
by
To expand a law that allows schools to employ a teacher who has not obtained a government teaching certificate to teach courses in computer science, a foreign language, mathematics, biology, chemistry, engineering, physics and robotics. The bill would expand that list to include writing, journalism and health sciences. Current law requires a non-certified teacher to have a major or graduate degree in the relevant subject area, and the bill would also add recent professional experience in the field to this requirement.
