STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS 07707
The purpose of this legislation is to amend section 33-1004A, Idaho
Code, to increase the education and experience multiplier of each
instructional staff member by ten percent if the teacher has been
certified by the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards and
to designate teachers so certified as Master Teachers. This change is
intended to encourage excellence in teaching.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is currently 1 teacher in the Idaho School District so certified. A
number of others are seeking certification at this time. It is estimated that
the additional cost per teacher would be $3,000 to $4,000 per teacher
per year.
