| WI | Signed into law 04/2008 | P-12 | The bill requires that anyone who teaches in a public school or charter school must hold a teaching license issued by the department of public instruction (DPI). Teachers in virtual charter schools (defined as a charter school offering an online learning program) are exempt from this provision until July 1, 2009. Virtual charter schools are not required to be in the school district of the approving school board, unlike regular charter schools.
Beginning with the 2009-10 school year, school boards that establish a virtual charter school must ensure that no more than 85% of pupils attending do so through the Open Enrollment Program. School boards are not authorized to establish a virtual charter school before the 2009-10 school year. DPI must make online courses available for a reasonable fee.
Each school board or chartering entity must do the following: 1. Determine which pupils may enroll in an online course, which courses are available and the number of courses a student may take; 2. provide a safe and secure online environment; 3. Assign an appropriately licensed teacher for each course; 4. Ensure that students enrolled part-time have direct contact with a teacher for at least 20 minutes per week per course, that elementary school students enrolled full-time have direct contact with a teacher for at least 2 hours every school day, and that high school students enrolled full-time have direct teacher contact for at least 30 minutes each school day; 5.
