The bill amends existing law RCW 28A.405.220, which governs nonrenewal of employment contracts for provisional certificated employees in school districts, and repeals a set of statutes implementing the interstate teacher mobility compact (chapter 28A.420 RCW). The amendment keeps and defines provisional employees as certificated staff in teaching or other nonsupervisory positions subject to nonrenewal and sets out the procedural steps for notification, informal reconsideration, superintendent reporting, school board consideration, and final decision. This is a modification of existing law (procedural change) and a repeal of related statutory provisions; it does not create a new crime or change criminal penalties. The amended procedures specified include written nonrenewal notice on or before May 15 preceding the next school term (or by June 15 if the omnibus appropriations act has not passed the legislature by the end of the regular session); methods for serving notice (personal, certified/registered mail, or leaving a copy at the employee’s usual abode); a ten-day window for the employee to request an informal meeting and a requirement that the meeting occur within ten days of the request with at least three days’ written notice; a ten-day deadline after the meeting for the superintendent to reinstate the employee or send a written recommendation of nonrenewal to the board; delivery of the superintendent’s report to the employee at least three days before the board meeting; and a requirement that the board notify the employee in writing of its final decision within ten days following the meeting. The section applies to persons employed in such positions after June 25, 1976. The bill repeals RCW 28A.420.005; .010; .020; .030; .040; .050; .060; .070; .080; .090; .100; .110; and .120 (each corresponding to 2024 c 317 ss. 1–13). The amendment also removes or brackets text that referenced completion of specific courses and equity-based requirements (RCW 28A.410.035 and RCW 28A.410.277). The extracted materials do not include the full prior text deleted, the substantive content or practical effects of the repealed interstate teacher mobility compact statutes, any effective date for the amendments or repeals, or any related transition or implementation provisions.

If enacted, school districts would have a clearer, time‑bound process to follow when deciding not to renew provisional certificated employees: written nonrenewal notices generally by May 15 (or June 15 if the omnibus appropriations act is delayed), a ten‑day window for employees to request an informal meeting, tight deadlines for the superintendent to reinstate or send a written recommendation to the board, and required short notice periods for both the meeting and the board’s final written decision. This directly affects provisional teachers and other nonsupervisory certificated staff (who gain a predictable chance to meet and respond), and increases administrative duties for superintendents and school boards to meet the new notice and timeline requirements; the bill does not specify any new funding to cover those administrative costs. The bill also repeals the statutes establishing the interstate teacher mobility compact, which likely changes legal authority around reciprocal licensure and any compact‑related requirements, but the extracted text does not include the compact language or transition rules, so the practical effects on out‑of‑state licensed teachers, district hiring options, or licensure processes are unclear. No effective date or funding changes are shown in the provided facts, leaving implementation timing and fiscal impacts uncertain.
