PROFESSIONAL EDUCATOR

STANDARDS BOARD

[ Filed December 29, 2005, 2:32 p.m. , effective January 1, 2006 ]

     During the 2005 legislative session, ESSB 5732, starting at section 101, reconstituted the state board of education and transferred its powers, duties, and functions for teacher certification and preparation programs to the professional educator standards board. Effective January 1, 2006, all references in law to the state board of education in these areas of the revised code is to be construed to mean the professional educator standards board. By operation of law, all records, contracts, rules, and pending business of the state board of education in the areas of teacher certification and preparation programs are now transferred to the professional educator standards board.

     Therefore, at this time we request the following rules contained in Title 180 WAC be transferred to new chapters under Title 181 WAC, the professional educators standards board's title:


Chapter 180-77 WAC Chapter 181-77 WAC
Chapter 180-77A WAC Chapter 181-77A WAC

     We further request that above listed chapters of Title 180 WAC be decodified.
