SB1061

Authorizing reassignment of school personnel in certain instances

Chamber Passed·3/2/26

SB1061 allows reassignment of school personnel in West Virginia after the second school month under certain conditions.

SB1061 amends the Code of West Virginia to allow the reassignment of school personnel after the second school month if specific conditions are met. This includes reassignments to comply with pupil-teacher ratios, class sizes, or caseload standards. The reassigned employee must be the least senior among those eligible, and their annual contract, compensation, or benefits remain unchanged. The bill also outlines the process for notifying employees and providing them an opportunity to object before the reassignment is approved.
