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. 1 29 1 30 1 31 1 32 MAGGIE TINSMAN 1 33 E. THURMAN GASKILL 1 34 HF 2378.801 78 1 35 kh/cf
