SENATE BILLS COULD USE YOUR SUPPORT

It is that time of year again and the Commission on Teacher Credentialing has sponsored a couple of teacher discipline bills that could use your support.  Senate Bills 1110 (Scott), regarding suspending & revoking credentials related to criminal matters, and SB 1105 (Margett), regarding "no contest" pleas and eliminating a barrier related to verifying adverse actions that can be critical in substitute hirings, are scheduled for hearings with the Senate Education Committee on March 26.  You can read the detail on these bills at  http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/bilinfo.html

The CTC Watch has sent letters of support and copies of those are attached.  After reading the bills, or at least the short Legislative Counsel's Digest at the front, you may want to add your support by sending letters to:

       The Honorable Jack Scott
       Chair, Senate Education Committee
       State Capitol, Room 2083
       Sacramento, CA 95814
or
       Fax it to 1 (916) 324-7543

Now, if time is critical simply have your administrative assistant copy the attached on your letterhead and fax it to Senator Scott.

You will feel better if you do.
