Restores previous provisions for new teacher and principal mentoring programs in Illinois schools.
HB5532 amends the Illinois School Code to reinstate certain provisions concerning mentoring programs for new teachers and principals that existed before being amended by Public Act 102-521. It mandates that each public school or a group of schools develop a new teacher induction and mentoring program to assist first and second-year teachers in achieving instructional excellence, subject to funding availability. The bill also requires the State Board of Education to establish a competitive grant program for these mentoring initiatives.
