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.
