Amends existing law to extend eligibility for master teacher premiums to pupil service staff employees under certain conditions.
During the 2015 Legislative Session the legislature requested the Board add pupil service staff to the career ladder and the Master Teacher Premium provisions. Pupil Service Staff were added to the career ladder in 2016 and this amendment to Section 33-1004I, Idaho Code, will allow pupil service staff to be eligible for the Master Teacher Premium. Allowing pupil service staff to be eligible for the Master Teacher Premium is consistent with the Task Force subcommittee recommendation adopted by the Board at a September 2015 Special Board meeting. Should this legislation be approved, the Board will develop a rubric for determining the level of mastery necessary for instructional staff and pupil service staff to receive the master educator premium.
