Teacher licensure provisions modified, maltreatment reporting requirements modified, and licensing data classification modified.
This bill modifies Minnesota teacher licensing rules by requiring schools to report specific employment actions to licensing boards within ten days, including discharges, suspensions, resignations, and criminal charges related to predatory offenses. It also mandates that licensing boards investigate these reports and share relevant district records, such as disciplinary files and investigative notes, upon request. Additionally, the bill classifies certain license denial orders as public data and requires licensing boards to report sexual misconduct cases involving minors to law enforcement authorities. These changes affect school boards, charter schools, and the Professional Educator Licensing and Standards Board, with provisions taking effect on July 1, 2026.
