The bill mandates that school nurses employed by local educational agencies (LEA) receive the same base salary as licensed teachers with a bachelor's degree and zero years of experience, provided they hold a valid registered nurse license and have no prior experience. Nurses with more training or experience must receive a higher salary. The act takes effect July 1, 2026, and applies to the 2026-2027 school year and each subsequent year.
