                                                   ADOPTED 4/13/93

    Strike everything after the enacting clause and insert the following:

    "NEW SECTION. Sec. 1.  The legislature finds that development of an assessment for purposes of acquiring an initial teaching certificate is an issue that merits consideration.  However, the legislature also finds that to pursue development and implementation of such an assessment at this point in time is premature in light of the state's commitment to develop a performance-based education system.  Therefore, it is the intent of the legislature to repeal the existing requirement for an admission-to-practice examination.  The state board of education shall monitor the development of a performance-based education system and report to the legislature by January 1, 1997, with recommendations for developing an individual assessment leading to initial teacher certification that is consistent with a performance-based education system.

NEW SECTION. Sec. 2.  RCW 28A.410.030 and 1991 c 116 s 21 & 1987 c 525 s 203 are each repealed."
