Staff Analysis of the Legislation
|
This bill stems from a $34M appropriation that ADE received to distribute to qualifying teachers in FY 2018 as a 1.06 percent raise. ASDB teachers were not included in the teachers who were eligible for the raise and this bill seeks to rectify that oversight. Provides that ASDB teachers are eligible for the same salary increase, in the same manner, as other public-school teachers in a year where money is appropriated to ADE for that purpose. Makes a technical change to the process by which school employees apply for fingerprint clearance. Applies retroactively from and after June 30, 2017.
