Overview
This bill increases the minimum salary for public school teaching staff members, including those in school districts and educational services commissions. The minimum salary will be $60,000 for teachers with a full-time certification and $61,500 for those with a master’s degree or higher, starting in the 2022-2023 school year. Additionally, the bill adjusts how the state provides additional funding to districts to ensure teachers meet or exceed the new minimum salary requirements, with funding levels decreasing over subsequent years. It also restricts automatic salary increases based on existing salary guides.
