| IN | Signed into law 08/2011 | P-12 | A new section (20-28-9-1) requires increases or increments in a local salary scale based on the following factors: 1) Combination of the following factors can account for no more than 33% of the calculation used to determine a teacher's increase or increment (number of years of experience and the attainment of either additional content area degrees or additional content area degrees and credit hours); 2) Results of evaluation; 3) assignment of instructional leadership roles, including the responsibility of conducting evaluations; 4) academic needs of students in the school corporation. Teachers rated ineffective or improvement necessary may not receive any raise or increment for the following year if the teacher's contract is continued. Teachers may appeal. By January 31, 2012, requires the department of education to publish a model salary schedule that a school corporation may adopt, and each school corporation is required to submit its local salary schedule to the department, where they will be published to the department's web site. Modifies language concerning supplemental services contracts to allow administrators to select and pay summer school teachers. Clarifies that current teacher salaries cannot be reduced due to a new salary scale adopted to meet requirements of S.B. 1.

| OH | Signed into law 04/2011 | P-12 | --Public employee pay: Does away with salary schedules and replaces with salary "ranges." Requires performance-based pay for teachers and nonteaching school employees. Requires a school board to measure performance by considering the level of license the teacher holds, whether the teacher is a "highly qualified teacher," the value-added measure the board uses to determine the performance of the students assigned to the teacher's classroom, the results of the teacher's performance evaluations or peer reviews (see Section 3317.13).
--Public employee benefits: Caps vacation leave at 7.7 hours per biweekly pay period. Reduces sick leave accrual for most public employees from 4.6 hours to 3.1 hours per biweekly pay period. Limits public employer contributions toward health care benefit costs to 85%. Requires health care benefits provided to management level employees to be the same as any health care benefits provided to other employees of the same public employer. Requires boards of education to adopt policies to provide leave with pay for school employees not covered by a collective bargaining agreement, and abolishes statutorily provided leave for teachers and nonteaching school employees. Prohibits a public employer from paying employee contributions to the five public employee retirement systems. Requires health care benefits provided through a jointly administered trust fund to be the same as the health care benefits provided to other public employees.
--Employment: Abolishes continuing contracts for teachers, except for those continuing contracts in existence prior to the effective date of the bill and revises the law relating to limited contracts.
Reduction in force: Prohibits a school district financial planning and supervision commission from using seniority as the only factor when making reductions in nonteaching employees. Prohibits a public employer from violating Ohio or federal civil rights law when conducting a reduction in force.

| FL | Signed into law 03/2011 | P-12 | Repeals existing language related to local salary schedules. Directs local boards to establish a grandfathered salary schedule for all employees hired before July 1, 2014. By July 2014, requires local boards to adopt a performance salary schedule that provides annual salary adjustments for instructional personnel and administrators based on performance. Employees must be compensated based on performance after they have received a performance evaluation as revised through this legislation. Establishes salary adjustments for highly effective or effective performance. Provides an employee receiving a rating other than highly effective or effective will not receive an annual salary adjustment for that year. Also directs local boards to provides for salary supplements for assignment to a Title I or low-performing school, certification and teaching in a critical teacher shortage area, or assignment of additional academic responsibilities. Provides that if budget constraints in any given year limit a local board's ability to fully fund all adopted salary schedules, the performance salary schedule may not be reduced on the basis of total cost or the value of individual awards in a manner that is proportionally greater than reductions to any other salary schedules adopted by the district. Existing legislation defines "critical teacher shortage area" as math, science and career education; this legislation directs the state board to identify critical teacher shortage areas.
Requires instructional personnel on annual contract as of July 2014 to be placed on the performance salary schedule. Permits instructional personnel on continuing contract or professional service contract to opt into the performance salary schedule if the employee relinquishes such contract and agrees to be employed on an annual contract. Directs districts, in developing the grandfathered salary schedule for instructional staff, to base a portion of each employee's compensation on performance, and to provide differentiated pay for both instructional personnel and school administrators based on district-determined factors, including additional responsibilities, school demographics, critical shortage areas and level of job performance difficulties.
Prohibits local boards from using advanced degrees in setting a salary schedule for instructional staff or administrators, unless the advanced degree is held in the individual's area of certification and is only a salary supplement. Requires that a superintendent's primary consideration in recommending an individual for a promotion be the individual's demonstrated effectiveness.
Exempts a Race to the Top district from specified salary schedule and performance pay provisions for the 2011-12 school year and annually thereafter based on annual approval by the state board, provided specified criteria are met. http://laws.flrules.org/files/Ch_2011-001.pdf
