LB 572 Legislature · 109th Legislature (2025-2026)

Authorize a school district to exceed its budget authority for stipends paid to a student teacher and change the applicability of the School District Property Tax Limitation Act

LB 572 allows Nebraska school districts to exceed their annual budget limits for stipends paid to student teachers or interns completing teaching practicums. This change adds stipends to the list of allowable budget exceptions under the School District Property Tax Limitation Act, meaning districts can cover these costs without triggering tax limitation penalties. The bill directly affects school districts managing teacher training programs and student teachers in public or private Nebraska schools. It makes no changes to other budget restrictions or tax policies.
