| OH | Signed into law 12/2006 | P-12 | This section requires the state board of education, in collaboration with the Ohio board of regents, to issue an annual report on the quality of institutions approved for the preparation of teachers. The state board is to prepare the report in collaboration with the board of regents and the teacher quality partnership and must use data collected by the partnership and other educational agencies as the basis for the information contained in the report. The report must include at least the following information:
(A) Identification of best practices in the preparation of teachers drawn from research conducted by the teacher quality partnership and other regional and national educational research efforts;
(B) A plan for implementing best practices in approved teacher preparation institutions;
(C) The number of graduates of approved teacher preparation institutions who graduated with a subject area specialty and teach grades seven through twelve. The number shall be disaggregated according to the subject areas of mathematics, science, foreign language, special education and related services, and any other subject area determined by the state board.
(D) A plan to be implemented by the teacher preparation programs approved by the state board under section 3319.23 of the Revised Code for increasing the number of classroom teachers in science, mathematics, and foreign language toward meeting the identified needs for teachers in those subject areas throughout the state but especially in hard-to-staff schools.
The state board is required to submit the report to the governor, the speaker and minority leader of the house of representatives, the president and minority leader of the senate, the chairpersons and ranking minority members of the standing committees of the house of representatives and the senate that consider education legislation, and the chancellor of the board of regents. Sec. 3319.234 requires that the teacher quality partnership, a consortium of teacher preparation programs that have been approved by the state board of education, study the relationship of teacher performance on educator licensure assessments, as adopted by the state board under section 3319.22 of the Revised Code, to teacher effectiveness in the classroom. Not later than September 1, 2008, the partnership is to begin submitting annual data reports along with any other data on teacher effectiveness the partnership determines appropriate to the governor, the president and minority leader of the senate, the speaker and minority leader of the house of representatives, the chairpersons and ranking minority members of the standing committees of the senate and the house of representatives that consider education legislation, the superintendent of public instruction, the state board of education, the Ohio board of regents, and the partnership for continued learning.

Postsec. | Establishes rules to implement the Grow Our Own Teacher Education Act. Allows consortia of at least one postsecondary institution, at least one school district or group of schools and at least one community organization to apply for a grant provided the application proves at least a subset of teachers typically prepared by the institution seeks employment in communities where hard-to-staff schools are located, and that the institution is not applying for funding for an existing consortium currently serving a group of candidates under a model substantially similar to that described in the Act. Establishes other requirements for potential applicants. Establishes procedures for grant RFPs. Establishes criteria for the review of proposals, including that:
--programs seek to attract diverse teacher candidates reflecting the diversity of students in hard-to-staff schools;
--the plan of work for the program include specific strategies for overcoming known barriers faced by the targeted schools in retaining qualified teachers as well as barriers faced by the individuals who make up the cohort to be enrolled in the program;
--faculty and relevant staff of the institution are knowledgeable regarding the needs of hard-to-staff schools and the specific issues that candidates from non-traditional backgrounds encounter when attempting to complete preparation for teaching careers;
--the community organization that is a member of the consortium has conducted projects or initiatives with a specific focus on involving parents and others in school improvement, either in the targeted schools or schools with similar characteristics, and has the capacity to recruit candidates for and support them as they progress through the program.
Requires the State Superintendent of Education to approve proposals for funding and make final determinations regarding the amounts to be provided based on specified criteria.
Establishes requirements and procedures for continuation of implementation funding.
During Fiscal Year 2006, requires the State Superintendent of Education to invite proposals from existing entities already engaged in teacher preparation initiatives whose principal features are congruent with those established the Act. Allows one or more entities whose proposals demonstrate that an eligible consortium exists and that a cohort of eligible candidates is being prepared for service in hard-to-staff positions or schools to receive implementation funding in accordance with an approved proposal and budget, depending upon the preparation status of the candidates, the amounts requested, and the availability of funding.
Establishes procedures for awarding planning grants.
Provides loans of up to $25,000 to candidates in Grow Your Own programs to complete their teacher training. States that any candidate who completes 5 years of service in a hard-to-staff school or hard-to-staff teaching position will be fully forgiven. However, if an individual has not assumed employment in a hard-to-staff school or position within two years after receiving a teaching certificate, the individual shall be required to begin the repayment (without interest) of amounts loaned through the program.
