Special education teachers; provide annual salary supplements for certain.
HB 1183 would have provided annual salary supplements to Mississippi special education teachers based on their teaching setting. Teachers working in itinerant settings (traveling between schools) would have received $4,000, while those in self-contained classrooms (dedicated special needs classrooms) would have received $8,000. The bill amended Mississippi's teacher salary schedule to add these specific supplements for qualifying educators. However, the bill died in committee on February 3, 2026, and did not become law.
