1 19 EXPLANATION
1 20 This bill requires each school district to implement an
1 21 approved beginning teacher induction program and provide every
1 22 beginning teacher employed by a school district with a mentor
1 23 by July 1, 2005. The bill notwithstands a provision that
1 24 makes the number of school district beginning teacher
1 25 induction programs and coordination of the program by the
1 26 department of education contingent upon an appropriation of
1 27 sufficient funds by the general assembly.
1 28 This bill may include a state mandate as defined in Code
1 29 section 25B.3. The bill requires that the state cost of any
1 30 state mandate included in the bill be paid by a school
1 31 district from state school foundation aid received by the
1 32 school district under Code section 257.16. The specification
1 33 is deemed to constitute state compliance with any state
1 34 mandate funding-related requirements of Code section 25B.2.
1 35 The inclusion of this specification is intended to reinstate
2 1 the requirement of political subdivisions to comply with any
2 2 state mandates included in the bill.
