1 1 Amend House File 2378, as passed by the House, as
1 2 follows:
1 3 #1. Page 1, by inserting before line 1 the
1 4 following:
1 5 "Section 1. NEW SECTION. 256E.6 LEGISLATIVE
1 6 FINDINGS AND INTENT.
1 7 1. The general assembly finds that classroom
1 8 management is often difficult and complex, that
1 9 students are from diverse racial, ethnic, and social
1 10 backgrounds, and that behavioral disorders and special
1 11 education needs abound. Teachers, therefore, must be
1 12 prepared to effectively manage classrooms, to
1 13 communicate with and engage parents in their child's
1 14 education, to assess students' developmental needs,
1 15 and to organize and work in teams. While student
1 16 needs are great, the nation is experiencing a teacher
1 17 shortage.
1 18 2. Therefore, it is the intent of the general
1 19 assembly that the department of education encourage
1 20 each school district to develop and implement a
1 21 volunteer program that utilizes a valuable, tested
1 22 human resource, Iowa's retired teachers and
1 23 administrators, by inviting these experienced
1 24 educators to return to the schools as volunteer
1 25 mentors and aides. A volunteer mentor is not a mentor
1 26 as defined in section 256E.1, and is ineligible for
1 27 awards made under section 256E.4."
1 28 #2. By renumbering as necessary.
