A SUMMARY OF HOUSE BILL 4428 AS INTRODUCED 3-7-01

 

The bill would amend the Revised School Code to change the minimum qualifications for substitute teachers. Under current law the board of a school district or intermediate school district may employ a person without a teaching certificate as a substitute teacher if the person has at least 90 semester hours of college credit from a college or university. House Bill 4428 would amend the provision to specify that "college" would include an accredited community college located in this state.
