HB 7312

Abstract

Amends the Chicago School District Article of the School Code. In a Section concerning the removal of teachers and principals, provides that each person on the State Board of Education's list of prospective hearing officers must have had a minimum of 5 years of experience as an arbitrator or attorney (instead of requiring that he or she be accredited by a national arbitration organization and have had a minimum of 5 years of experience as an arbitrator in cases involving labor and employment relations matters between educational employers and educational employees or their exclusive bargaining representatives).
