The 5-Hour Classroom Mandate & District Consolidation Discussions - ALR 101-09
Manage episode 403105111 series 3138976
Senate Amendment 1 reinstates the five-hour classroom mandate but provides the flexibility many superintendents desired by carving out exemptions from the five clock hours requirement that includes:
- Students enrolled in dual credit.
- Participation in internships.
- Students participating in youth apprenticeships.
- Students participating in blended learning programs.
Also in this episode, Senate Bill 1838 is yet another effort to consolidate school districts in Illinois. It isn't the first and won't be the last. The Alliance is opposed to this bill, but it's possible it will be viewed by many legislators as a more measured approach they could get behind. Stay tuned on this because negotiations will undoubtedly pick up steam.
