Relating to temporary waiver of superintendent certification for employment of public school district superintendents.
Fiscal Notes
No fiscal impact.
Bill Analysis
SB 168 would amend code to allow the commissioner to waive the superintendent certification for employment of public school district superintendents. Either the certification or a waiver would be required.
Vote Recommendation Notes
This bill would affirm the principle of limited government, therefore we support this legislation. Allowing the commissioner to make decisions based off his or her's own discretion instead of requiring a certification results in less regulation in education.
