 33        In determining the experience factor, the  actual  years  of  teaching  or
 34    administrative    service  in  an accredited public school or in an accredited
 35    private or parochial school shall be credited.
 36        In determining the education factor, only  credits  earned  after  initial
 37    certification,  based upon a transcript on file with the teacher certification
 38    office of the state department of  education,  earned  at  an  institution  of
 39    higher  education  accredited  by  the  state board of education or a regional
 40    accrediting association, shall be allowed. Instructional staff  whose  initial
 41    certificate  is  an occupational specialist certificate shall be treated as BA

  1    degree prepared instructional staff. Credits earned by such occupational  spe-
  2    cialist  instructional  staff  after  initial  certification shall be credited
  3    toward the education factor.
  4        (2)  In determining the statewide  average  multiplier  for  instructional
  5    staff,  no multiplier in excess of 1.59092 shall be used. If the actual state-
  6    wide average multiplier for instructional staff, as determined  by  this  sec-
  7    tion,  exceeds 1.59092, then each school district's instructional staff multi-
  8    plier shall be multiplied by the result  of  1.59092  divided  by  the  actual
  9    statewide  average multiplier for instructional staff. Instructional staff who
 10    spend a majority of their time providing math or science instruction  to  stu-
 11    dents  shall  be  assigned  an  additional multiplier of 1.0375. Instructional
 12    staff teaching at the secondary level shall hold a math or science  certifica-
 13    tion  in  order  to be eligible for this additional multiplier. The additional
 14    moneys so generated shall be passed through to  the  instructional  staff  who
 15    generated the distribution, or shall revert to the state.
 16        (3)  In  determining  the  statewide average multiplier for administrative
 17    staff, no multiplier in excess of 1.86643 shall be used. If the actual  state-
 18    wide  average  multiplier for administrative staff, as determined by this sec-
 19    tion, exceeds 1.86643, then each school district's administrative staff multi-
 20    plier shall be multiplied by the result  of  1.86643  divided  by  the  actual
 21    statewide average multiplier for administrative staff.

                           RS 15698
                               
As an incentive to attract more math and science teachers in the
K-12 arena, this bill increases state funding for instructional staff
who spend the majority of their time in these fields. Funding would
only flow to districts that adopt the same incentive locally.

$2.8M in FY 2007 if all districts negotiate contracts with the
incentive included.
