Special education teachers; provide annual salary supplement to those exposed to bodily fluids of students.

HB 786 would provide a $2,000 annual salary supplement to Mississippi special education teachers who work in self-contained classrooms and are exposed to students' bodily fluids. This supplement would be added to their base salary as determined by the state's existing teacher salary schedule. The bill specifically targets teachers in self-contained special education settings, where students with special needs are taught in dedicated classroom environments.
