Board adopts policy keeping Non-Chapter 21 teachers at Step Zero until certification or three years
Summary
Trustees voted 6-0 to keep teachers hired on Non-Chapter 21 contracts at Step Zero until they become certified or complete three years of service, after which they become eligible for HB2 TRA.
The board approved Motion #6293 on June 8, 2026, to maintain Non-Chapter 21 contracted teachers at Step Zero until they are certified or have completed three years of service; after meeting either condition, teachers become eligible for HB2 TRA benefits. Mr. Bruce moved the motion and Dr. Green seconded; the motion passed 6-0.
Board members framed the action as a personnel-policy decision affecting placement on the salary schedule and eligibility for HB2 Teacher Retirement Annuitant (TRA) provisions. The motion’s implementation will be handled by district human resources consistent with state law and board policy.
