This bill would require that teachers be paid when their designated planning time during the school day is used instead for supervising or instructing students. Currently, teachers may have planning periods redirected to student supervision or instruction without additional compensation, and this bill would change that. Who it may affect: public school teachers and school districts across Kentucky.
