SB 1107 - This act modifies provisions regarding career ladder admission and stage achievement for teachers. Additional responsibilities and volunteer efforts outside of compensated hours may include uncompensated coaching, supervising, and organizing extracurricular activities, serving as a mentor or tutor to students, additional teacher training or certification, or assisting students with college or career preparation. The act increases the state percentage of funding for salary supplements for career ladder from 40% to 60% and lowers the number of years before a teacher is eligible from five to two years.

This act is identical to provisions in the truly agreed CCS#2/HCS/SS/SCS/SBs 681 & 662 (2022), provisions in HCS/SS#2/SB 997 (2022), provisions in HCS/HB 1770 (2022), HB 2493 (2022), provisions in the perfected HB 2493 (2022), and similar to HCS/HB 1133 (2021).
