EDUCATION - Repeals, amends and adds to existing law to revise provisions regarding the experience and education multiplier; the career ladder; a district's salary-based apportionment; and eligibility for an Idaho professional endorsement.
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
Amends existing law to move Pupil Service Staff onto the Career Ladder and make technical corrections to the existing requirements. These amendments include the establishment of student outcome- based criteria, in addition to the existing student achievement criteria that are applicable to the work that Pupil Service Staff perform in supporting students. The addition of these criteria willallowPupilServiceStafftomoveontheCareerLadderbasedonquantifiablestudentoutcomes, the same as Instructional Staff. Technical corrections include: • removing a reference to instructional staff which was left in a previous section of code and is no longer consistent with the use of the term, • specifying that performance criteria data must be submitted annually for the determination of movement on the Career Ladder, •addingclarificationtothecreditrequirementsfordeterminingtheadditionaleducationalallotment during implementation, to make it consistent with the language in the same section which takes effect at full implementation, and • clarifying that identifiable performance evaluation ratings are exempt from public disclosure pursuant to Section 74-106, Idaho Code. Additional language has been added to allow for the calculation of the salary based apportionment for Pupil Service Staff and Administrative Staff, when the district does not employ these individuals, but contracts for services pursuant to Section 33-1004(6), Idaho Code, and amends the administrator evaluation review process to engage the Idaho teacher preparation programs to assist in assuring the fidelity of the evaluations with the statewide framework.
