AB524,1,3 An Act to renumber 118.235; to amend 119.04 (1); and to create 118.235 (title) and 118.235 (2) of the statutes; relating to: requiring school boards to compensate teachers for time spent on nonclassroom services.

Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill prohibits a school board from requiring its teachers to perform any services outside of regular classroom instruction unless the school board compensates the teacher for his or her time. Under current law, a school must provide each teacher a daily duty-free 30-minute lunch period, or the school board may enter into a contract with a teacher for services during the teacher's lunch period.

For further information see the local fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
