SENATE BILL 6241
State of Washington
64th Legislature
2016 Regular Session
By Senators Billig, Rolfes, Keiser, Liias, Conway, McAuliffe, Habib, and Chase; by request of Governor Inslee
Read first time 01/13/16. Referred to Committee on Early Learning & K-12 Education.
AN ACT Relating to improving the recruitment and retention of qualified teachers by raising salaries and strengthening teacher mentoring; creating new sections; and making appropriations.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON:
NEW SECTION.  Sec. 1.  INTENT. (1) Washington has a chronic and acute teacher shortage. School districts across the state have struggled for years to find enough qualified teachers to fill vacancies in special education, math, and science, and a shortage of elementary teachers has emerged due, in part, to the state's recent efforts to lower class sizes in early elementary grades. Compounding the shortage is a failure to retain teachers once they enter the profession. Fully half of all teachers leave within five years on the job and twenty percent leave after their first year in the classroom.
(2) The legislature finds that attracting qualified college graduates to the teaching profession, supporting them during their first years on the job, and keeping them in the classroom for more than five years, has strong positive effects on student learning.
(3) Therefore, the legislature intends to raise the minimum base salary for beginning teachers to forty thousand dollars per year and increase by at least 1 percent the salary for all other teachers. The legislature further intends to support robust mentoring for beginning teachers to keep them in the classroom and to help them meet the needs of a diverse student population.
NEW SECTION.  Sec. 2.  BASIC EDUCATION EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION. (1) The following calculations determine the salaries used in the state allocations for certificated instructional, certificated administrative, and classified staff units as provided in RCW 28A.150.380 and under section 502, chapter 4, Laws of 2015 3rd sp. sess.:
(a) Salary allocations for certificated instructional staff units are determined for each district by multiplying the district's certificated instructional total base salary from section 4 of this act by the district's average staff mix factor for certificated instructional staff in that school year, computed using the table of staff mix factors for certificated instructional staff in section 3 of this act; and
(b) Salary allocations for certificated administrative staff units and classified staff units for each district are determined based on the district's certificated administrative and classified salary allocation amounts from section 4 of this act.
(2) Incremental fringe benefit factors are applied to salary adjustments at a rate of 20.78 percent for school year 2016-17 for certificated instructional and certificated administrative staff and 19.22 percent for the 2016-17 school year for classified staff.
(3)(a) Pursuant to RCW 28A.150.410, the following state-wide salary allocation schedule for certificated instructional staff is established for basic education salary allocations:
