SB 285 - Current law states that when a school district interrupts its career ladder program and in a subsequent school year renews its participation, the district must reenter the program on the cost-sharing basis specified in statute. This act would allow any school district that participated in the career ladder program prior to the 2001-2002 school year but ceased its participation at any time from July 1, 2001, to July 1, 2005, to resume participation in the program at the same matching level for which the district qualified during its last year of participation, provided that the district reenters the program no later than July 1, 2006.
This act is contained in the truly agreed to and finally passed CCS/SCS/HCS/HB 297.
