Summary

Teacher compensation; at or above national average; various annual salary adjustments. Requires that public school teachers be compensated at a rate that is at or above the national average for each step or level on a years of experience-based pay scale. Under current law, compensation at such rate is aspirational, and such aspirational rate is silent on compensation variations based on experience. The foregoing provisions of the bill have a delayed effective date of July 1, 2025. The bill also provides that (i) effective for the 2024-2025 school year, each teacher in each school division, Academic Year Governor's School, and Regional Alternative Education Program shall be awarded a cost-of-living compensation adjustment in an amount or percentage to be determined in the general appropriation act and (ii) effective beginning with the 2025-2026 school year, state funding shall be provided pursuant to the general appropriation act in a sum sufficient to fund a 12 percent annual increase for teacher salaries in each school division, Academic Year Governor's School, and Regional Alternative Education Program.
