A
Chair
huff
present,
thank
you
very
much.
We'll
try
to
move
quickly.
First,
the
bill
we
have
for
consideration
is
house
bill.
Well,
let's
take
that
out
of
order
and
we'll
just
go
through
to
the
senator
first
and
let
him
complete
obvious
senate
bill
127,
an
act
relating
to
student,
health
and
safety.
If
senator
wise
would
join
us,
please
at
the
table,
if
you
have
guests,
introduce
them
as
well
as
yourself,
and
you
may.
G
Proceed.
Thank
you,
madam
chair
members
of
the
committee
good
morning.
Thank
you
all
so
much
for
accommodating
my
schedule
as
we're
currently
strolling
away
in
the
senate
senate
bill
127
and
madam
sure,
I
think
that
has
a
committee
sub.
If
we
need
to
move
on
adoption
of
that.
G
Thank
you.
Members
senator
bill
127
relates
to
rescue
inhalers.
The
bill
was
brought
to
me
by
the
the
asthma
society,
as
well
as
the
lung
association,
basically
changed
the
definition
of
medications
to
include
bronchodilator
rescue
inhalers.
It
encourages
schools
to
keep
the
bronco
dilator
rescue
inhaler
in
at
least
two
locations.
That's
not
a
mandate,
it's
just
an
encouragement.
A
G
Really
quick
just
one
thing,
madam
chair
on
the
committee
subject,
so
members
also
know
the
committee
sub
replaces
the
term
the
epinephrine
auto
injector
that
we
currently
have
in
krs
with
the
term
injectable
epinephrine
device.
It's
just
a
simple
one.
Word
change.
That's
all
the
committee
sub
does.
Thank
you
all.
C
H
C
C
I
A
C
A
G
You,
madam
chair,
this
bill
also
has
a
committee
sub.
If
the
members
are
willing
to
move
for
adoption
on
that,
okay.
A
G
Thank
you,
members
senate
bill.
128
is
a
bill
that
has
actually
gotten
a
lot
of
coverage.
It's
got
a
lot
of
questions,
but
I
consider
an
opportunity
bill.
I
consider
an
opportunity
for
a
year
of
education
lost
and
the
possibility
for
a
year
of
education
that
can
be
gained
when
I've
joined
the
senate,
not
that
very
long
ago,
and
as
being
now
the
education
chairman.
I
constantly
hear
it's
all
about
the
kids.
G
G
This
is
from
my
heart
as
a
parent
who
has
seen
the
impact
of
four
of
my
own
children
age.
Excuse
me
grades
4th,
7th,
9th
and
12th
of
what
this
last
year
has
done
for
not
just
my
children
but
for
children
across
the
commonwealth
when
we
adjourned
last
year
about
this
month.
In
this
time,
none
of
us
knew
what
was
happening.
G
G
It
was
going
to
do,
but
those
two
weeks
went
into
months-
and
I
remember
when
my
daughter,
who
then
was
a
junior,
had
many
of
her
high
school
friends
over
and
they
asked
me
because
being
a
senator
or
a
legislator
like
yourself,
they
think
we
know
the
answers.
We
know
things
happening
behind
the
scenes
that
others
don't
know
and
the
questions
became
max.
G
G
My
daughter,
then,
was
saying
well
dad
it's
gonna
be
okay,
though
right
I
mean
august
comes
around
we're
gonna
be
back
in
school,
I'll,
be
a
senior
my
third
grader
expecting
to
go
into
fourth
grade.
This
will
be
over
right,
dad
yeah
by
the
end
of
the
summer.
This
all
will
be
over
there's
no
way.
We
won't
be
back
in
school
by
august.
There's
no
way
we
won't
be
back
to
normalcy
of
august
man
was
I
wrong.
G
I
don't
think
I'm
the
only
one
that
was
probably
wrong
with
that,
but
I've
seen
so
much
from
my
children
and
from
friends
of
my
children
and
from
parents
that
have
contacted
me
as
the
senate
education
committee.
Chairman
saying:
what
can
we
do?
What
can
we
try
to
do
to
help
that's
what
senator
bill
128
is
aiming
towards
to
do.
G
Is
it
a
perfect
bill?
No,
but
I've
yet
to
probably
vote
on
a
perfect
bill
in
my
time
so
far
in
this
legislature,
but
this
bill
does
give
an
opportunity
for
families
that
wish
to
choose
to
do
so.
It's
a
choice
bill.
It's
not
forcing
anyone,
but
it
offers
the
opportunity
to
provide
educational
enhancement
opportunities
from
those
students
currently
enrolled
in
grades
k
through,
and
I
want
to
repeat
k-12.
G
This
is
not
for
seniors.
Only.
Unfortunately,
we
had
a
statewide
media
personality
that
put
out
information
that
this
bill
is
for
seniors
only.
This
is
not.
This
is
for
k-12
students
in
public
and
private
schools
that,
if
they
wish
to
do
so,
based
off
educational
experiences
lost
over
this
last
year
that
they
have
the
opportunity
to
supplement
that
year
by
being
able
to
hold
back
if
they
wish
to
do
so
for
the
2021
school
year
and
take
repeat
that
course
repeat
that
great
excuse
me
for
21
22..
G
I
received
input
from
multiple
people
on
this
bill,
multiple
people
across
this
bill,
and
I
continue
to
get
questions,
and
I
continue
to
get
comments
on
this.
Let
me
briefly
break
down
what
the
bill
does,
as
amended
by
the
committee
sub,
that
you've
passed
despite
any
passing
grades
during
the
2021
school
year.
This
bill
would
allow
kentucky
public
and
non-public.
A
G
G
C
G
As
I
was
saying,
the
bill
would
allow
for
those
wishing
to
use
next
year
as
a
supplemental
school
year
that
students
could
retake
any
coursework
already
completed
or
could
be
supplemented
with
new
courses.
The
bill
also
allows
a
retaken
high
school
course,
though,
shall
not
count
as
an
additional
credit
towards
graduation.
Unless
the
student
failed.
The
original
course
it
provides
flexibility.
G
G
So
this
bill
does
not
allow
19
and
20
year
old
students
to
be
in
the
hallways
of
high
schools
or
on
a
football
field
on
a
basketball
court
for
any
type
of
advantage,
as
the
age
would
be.
This
keeps
it
currently
is
in
place
as
it
is,
and
I
intend
no
other
changes
to
be
made
to
that
for
the
sanctity
of
the
double-a
rule.
That's
currently
in
place
same
for
transfer
regulations,
transfer
regulations
also
are
not
waived.
G
It
also
gives
the
ability
of
local
control
a
family
on
a
student
would
have
it
to
may
1st
of
2021
as
a
deadline
to
submit
their
request
to
their
school
district
if
they
think
this
is
for
them.
Once
again,
this
bill
is
not
for
everyone.
My
senior
has
one
foot
out
the
door
ready
to
go
representative
riley.
I
want
to
keep
her
back.
If
I
could,
she
needs
to
go.
G
This
is
not
for
her,
but
she
says
dad
thanks
for
thinking
of
students,
of
trying
to
do
something
for
them
june
1st
one
month
from
that
deadline
june,
1st
is
the
deadline
for
local
school
boards
to
accept
all
or
none.
I
want
to
repeat
that
representative
prunty
all
or
none
we're
not
allowing
five
get
chosen,
but
10
do
not
get
chosen,
we're
not
picking
and
choosing
and
holding
back
the
star
point
guard
from
butler
county
we're,
not
picking
and
choosing
certain
ones
we
think
would
be
good,
but
not
taking.
G
All
this
is
an
all
or
none
approach
school
boards
can
decide.
They
can
look
at
how
many
students
wish
to
do
this
and
see.
Do
we
have
enough
teachers?
Is
this
going
to
cause
a
major
impact?
So
local
control
is
the
key
in
allowing
this
to
happen
or
not.
Lastly,
for
that
local
control
decision,
local
school
boards
have
until
june
16th
is
the
deadline,
then
to
submit
their
plans
to
kde
of
what
this
is
going
to
look
like
for
that
local
school
district.
G
I
do
have
an
emergency
on
the
bill
as
it's
declared,
but
one
thing
I
want
to
add,
as
we
do
talk
about
athletics
and
you
have
to
talk
about
athletics,
I've
had
many
people
say
senior.
What
senator,
why
couldn't
we
have
done
this
last
year
for
those
singers
that
didn't
get
a
baseball
season?
Softball
my
heart
broke
for
those
kids,
seeing
baseball
and
softball
jerseys
on
a
field,
and
parents
were
driving
around
like
field
of
dreams,
there's
no
players
on
the
field.

the
ice
storm
that
hit
recently
when
these
games
get
canceled
this
season,
there's
not
much
making
up
those
games.
Your
team
gets
hit
by
covid,
there's
not
much
making
up
those
games.
G
Athletic
directors
and
coaches
are
using
pencils
this
year
and
not
ink
pens
because
they're
constantly
changing
and
having
to
adapt.
I
give
them
full
grace.
This
has
been
very
hard
for
everybody.
Now
the
other
portion
of
this
bill.
I
do
want
to
focus
on,
like
I
said
from
the
start.
Academics
first
think
about
your
area.
Technology
centers
atc's
have
not
been
in
for
the
most
part
for
in-person
learning.
Imagine
taking
a
welding
class
online
I'd
be
hard
enough.
Take
a
welding
class
in
person.
I'll
be
honest
with
you,
but
online
I've
had
welding
teachers.
G
G
A.C.T
prep
for
some
students
did
not
get
a
chance
to
take
the
a.c.t
this
year.
This
gives
them
opportunities.
Superintendent
of
greene
county
school
will
hodges,
who
testified
in
support
of
this
bill
in
the
senate.
Education
committee
did
a
parent
survey
just
through
the
green
county,
school
district
and
here's
what
he
found
I'll,
be
very
brief,
because
I
know
it's
a
friday
and
we
all
need
to
get
out
here.
This
bill
is
very
important
for
a
lot
of
families.
G
Greene
county
school
is
a
survey
sent
out
17
students
indicated
they
would
be
interested
in
this.
That's
just
in
grades,
though
9
through
12.,
probably
for
the
most
part,
we're
talking
about
maybe
three
to
five
percent.
That
may
do
this,
because,
once
again,
this
bill
is
not
for
everyone,
but,
as
mr
hodges
said
of
his
freshman
class,
seven
said
they
would
be
interested
in
this
three
sophomores
four
juniors
three
seniors
and
I
think
once
again
we
have
to
talk
about
up
here.
G
Are
we
truly
all
about
the
kids
and
does
this
give
some
families
and
some
children
the
opportunity
to
be
able
to
repeat
a
year
that
was
lost,
but
does
it
give
them
the
opportunity
to
get
that
year
back
if
they
wish
to
choose
to
do
so?
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
I
also
have
me
some
other
guests
that
may
be
able
to
answer
specific
questions
individually.
A
A
Through
12,
thank
you.
Yes,
thank
you.
Thank
you.
We
do
have
some
a
few
questions.
Representative
bojanowski.
K
Yes,
senator,
I
just
want
to
reiterate
how
grateful
I
am
for
this
bill
and
I
want
to
speak
on
it
from
an
elementary
perspective.
K
I
know
of
kindergarten
students,
who've
been
doing
virtual
all
year,
who
don't
know
the
letters,
yet
they
don't.
They
can't
identify
the
letters
to
send
those
kids
on
to
first
grade
is
just
setting
them
up
to
increase
those
gaps
that
we
know
already
exists,
so
I'm
very
grateful
that
this
bill
extends
through
all
the
grade
levels,
I'm
sincerely
hoping
that
jcps
chooses
to
adopt
it,
but
I
just
want
to
reiterate
my
support
for
the
the
initiative
and
really
thinking
about
our
kids.
Thank
you.
E
Thank
you,
ma'am,
chair,
senator
wise.
I
certainly
appreciate
you
bringing
this
as
representative
bojanowski
just
mentioned.
We
have
so
many
children
who
are
at
risk
and
we
do
not
know
how
much
learning
loss
there
is
you
and
I
have
conversations
you
know
my
passion
for
early
literacy.
Fourth
grade
reading
proficiency.
I
think
this
would
apply
as
well.
I'm
going
to
put
my
a
r
committee
head
on
just
a
minute.
If
you
don't
mind,
have
you
has
there
been?
G
Great
question
representative
tipton,
the
physical
note
that
we've
ran
twice
continues
to
be
indeterminable
just
based
off,
not
knowing
how
many
children
would
choose
to
do
this
option.
If,
given
the
opportunity,
I
will
let
chuck
from
steven
chuck
truesdrill
from
kde
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
the
specifics.
I
Thank
you
senator
and
thank
you
for
the
question
representative
tipton
chuck
truesdale
director
of
government
relations
for
the
kentucky
department
of
education.
Mr
truster,
would
you
turn
your
mic
on?
Please?
Oh,
it's
on
I'll
get
closer!
Thank
you!
Thank
you.
Ma'am
we've
been
sort
of
running
and
re-running
the
numbers
and,
as
senator
wise
said,
the
fiscal
note,
any
fiscal
note,
you're
going
to
get
will
say
indeterminable
simply
because
we
don't
have
good
estimates
for
how
many
students
would
take
advantage
of
this
option
and
how
many
districts
would
take
advantage
of
this
option.
I
E
Madam
chair,
I
do
have
an
additional
question:
go
ahead,
senator
and
chuck
you
may
be
able
to
weigh
on
this
too.
I'm
thinking,
specifically
the
students
in
high
school
who
are
taking
dual
credit
classes,
who
are
taking
advantage
of
the
work
ready
scholarship
classes
through
the
you
take
two
courses
per
year.
We've
got
that
currently
in
budget
language.
E
Now,
as
I
understand
it,
it's
a
two-part
question.
As
I
understand
these
students
would
be
able
to
retake
those
courses,
but
here's
the
follow-up
to
that
question.
We
have
that
scholarship
that
pays
a
portion
of
it
for
so
many
years.
If
say,
a
senior
who's
already
taken
maxed
out
on
their
courses.
What
would
would
they
have
to
pay
the
full
cost
of
that
of
that
of
that
dual
credit
or
work
ready.
I
Representative
tipton,
as
you
well
know,
as
the
the
chairman
of
the
appropriate
budget
subcommittee,
there
is
a
limited
amount
of
funds
appropriated
for
that
purpose,
and
so
there
is
nothing
in
this
bill
that
not
withstands
any
statutes
on
that
count.
So
districts
could,
of
course,
on
their
own
choose
to
pay
those
costs,
but
they
would
still
be
limited
by
statute
on
the
number
of
courses,
the
maximum
number
of
courses,
unless,
of
course,
the
budget
conference
committee
chose
to
insert
language
to
waive
that,
of
course,.
J
Thank
you
senator.
I
served
on
the
athletic
border
control
for
eight
years,
and
I
know
one
of
your
biggest
questions
will
be
athletics
because
we
used
to
see
that.
J
L
L
One
of
the
things
that
we
have
certainly
discovered
this
year
in
the
athletic
world
is
local
control
is
not
always
pretty,
and
we
know
there
will
be
different
decisions
made
in
different
areas,
but
nothing
about
this
particular
bill.
Waives
that,
as
a
matter
of
fact,
it
was
very
respectful
of
the
fact
that
we
didn't
want
people
taking
advantage
of
this
for
athletics.
This
needed
to
be
an
academic
decision.
J
One
more
plea:
I
support
the
older
kids
19
year
old
and
so
on.
I
think
that's
really
good
in
the
bill.
I
like
this
bill,
but
I
hope
that
it
works.
J
D
Thank
you,
madam
chair,
and
thank
you
senator
for
bringing
the
bill.
I
have
parents
that
are
asking
that
they're
waiting
to
make
further
plans
for
their
senior.
If
he's
going
to
retake
or
not,
I
have
my
own
question
is:
would
they
be
committed
to
retaking
the
whole
year
or
just
courses
they
might
have
not
done
well
in?
Is
it
a
commitment
to
the
whole
year.
D
I'm
looking
at
section
two
of
the
of
the
paragraph
one,
it's
just
not
real
clear.
I
I
think
the
the
language
indicates
that
schools
would
have
flexibility
on
how
students
could
do
certain
things
academically,
but
in
terms
of
eligibility
to
participate
in,
say,
extracurricular
activities
they
need
to
be
carrying
the
same
course
load
that
they
would
otherwise
have
to
be
carrying
in
order
to
participate
in,
for
instance,
athletics
or
something
of
that
nature.
You
don't
want
students
to,
for
example,
in
marching
band,
go
to
school
until
the
state
finals,
and
then
they
just
drop
out
the
next
day
because
they've
gotten
what
they
wanted
out
of
that
experience.
D
Father,
what
question
or
just
a
statement
my
I
had
been
texting,
my
superintendents
and
that's,
where
the
all
or
none
came
from
that
was
a
concern
of
theirs
and
that
a
football
game
was
or
football
was
the
example
similar
to
the
to
the
bands
that
you
just
mentioned
so
they're
not
going
to
be
allowed
to
do
that.
They
can't
just
drop
out.
D
One
more
madam
chair
quickly:
okay,
so
if,
if
a
student
quit
football,
the
school
wouldn't
get
the
skill
get
the
money,
but
the
student
could
still
quit.
D
L
Yeah,
I
think
in
reality
they
can
do
that
now,
yeah,
that
that,
because
it's
extracurricular
they
may
be
gone
after
week.
Three,
they
maybe
stay
the
whole
year
that
that's
why
it
was
so
important,
as
senator
wise,
so
graciously
kept
in
great
communication
with
us
and
questioning
that
the
education
piece
is
first
tie
the
funding
tie
the
education
piece
and
extracurriculars
will
probably
operate
as
normal
there'll,
be
people
in
and
out.
M
M
I
have
a
third
grader
at
home
and
I
have
watched
her
work
through
her
virtual
learning
and
the
speed
of
which
she's
able
to
go
through
and
do
that
and
know
that
she's
very
lucky,
because
she
has
my
wife
there
who
once
she
finishes
up
her
virtual
learning
within
45
minutes
to
an
hour
in
the
morning.
She
has
workbooks
placed
in
front
of
her.
M
I
don't
think
she's
far
behind,
but
I'm
sure
she's
behind
and
not
all
of
our
children
have
the
structure
of
having
someone
there
continuing
the
rest
of
the
day,
working
with
her
and
having
her
right
in
cursive
and
it's
I
tell
you
what
it's
a
struggle
for
our
parents,
because
I've
helped
on
the
virtual
learning
and
have
gotten
lost,
and
I've
learned
my
lesson
not
to
help
her
too
much.
M
Because
excuse
me,
usually,
whenever
I
offer
her
her
advice,
she
ends
up
missing
the
questions
on
her
on
her
her
test
that
she's
doing
right
there
or
the
courses
that
she's
doing.
But,
as
I
said,
I
know
we're
we're
worried
about
the
dollar
amount.
M
I
know
there's
no
way
for
us
to
ever
be
able
to
figure
an
actual
dollar
amount
that
we're
going
to
be
facing,
because
when
we
look
from
k-12,
we've
got
all
of
our
students
that
have
lost
a
year
and
we're
going
to
have
to
figure
out
a
way
to
help
them
make
that
back
up
and
actually
it's
a
year
and
a
half
they've
lost.
So,
but
thank
you
for
the
legislation.
I'm
looking
forward
to
supporting
you.
H
H
We
shouldn't
forget
that
we
have
a
percentage
of
students
that
are
held
about
held
back
each
year
anyway,
so
sure
this
is
going
to
be
some
extra
cost,
but
my
goodness,
what
better
way
to
use
our
money
to
help
these
kids
that
have
missed
a
year
and
a
half,
especially,
I
see
I
look
at
the
younger
kids
and
the
kindergarten
kids
and
the
kids
that
it's
so
important
for
them
to
learn
how
to
read
if
they
don't
learn
how
to
read
we're
in
trouble
later
on.
So
again,
I
think
this
is
a
good
bill.
C
Senator
wise,
I
simply
want
to
say
thank
you.
I
appreciate
you
bringing
this
legislation.
It
has
been
a
challenge
for
families
for
children
over
the
past
year.
My
wife
is
a
first
grade
teacher
and
she
talks
about
it
constantly.
The
kids
are
falling
through
the
gaps
and-
and
we
owe
it
to
our
kids
to
make
sure
that
that
we
set
them
up
for
success
in
the
future
that
will
benefit
those
children,
it'll
benefit
their
families
as
they
grow
up
and
will
benefit
those
communities.
F
First
of
all,
I
want
to
thank
the
commissioner
and
chad
collins
and
all
the
people
from
khsaa
for
navigating
through
a
difficult
season
for
for
the
high
school
athletes
of
this
state.
This
has
been
very
difficult
to
do,
but
they've
done
it
as
well
as
possible,
and
I
I
truly
appreciate
what
you've
done,
commissioner,
and
and
all
your
group
in
in
getting
through
this,
because
as
representative
I
mean
senator
wise
mentioned
a
while
ago,
we've
had
teams
that
played
22
games.
We
have
teams
played
seven
games,
so
you
know.
I
appreciate
that.
F
I
want
to
reiterate
one
that
that
representative
bojanowski
said
I'm
glad
this
is
a
k
through
12
bill.
I
think
it's
important
if
I
was
the
parent
of
a
kindergarten
or
a
first
grader
and
they
were
behind
and
they
weren't
gifted.
I
would
insist
that
they'd
be
retained
in
order
to
grasp
what
they
needed.
So
I
think
that
part
of
it
is
really
because
we've
all
you
know,
I'm
a
high
school
person
and
worked
in
high
school
and
it's
always
easy
to
be
concerned
about
what
the
high
schools
have
gone
through.
F
But
these
little
elementary
kids
have
gone
through
a
very,
very
difficult
time
and
the
ability
to
have
that
in
there
I
think,
is
very,
very
important.
I
want
to
reiterate
what
senator
weiss
said.
I
really
feel
so
bad
for
the
seniors
of
last
year.
I
mean
they
missed
out
on
graduations
and
prom
and
which,
like
the
high
school
girl,
that's
like
the
greatest
event
of
all
time
and
they
miss
out
on
all
that
plus
best
of
spring
sports
missed
out
a
whole
bunch.
F
Representative
prunty
mentioned
the
part
about
band
and
football.
They
are
gonna.
Many
of
them
are
not
gonna
continue
school.
I
think
they'll
finish
the
semester,
but
many
of
them
once
they
get
through
that
that
are
seniors,
they're
they're
probably
going
to
stop
and
then
go
to
college
at
that
time,
and
I
don't
know,
there's
anything
you
can
do
to
prevent
that
from
happening.
That's
just
the
the
reality.
Is
this
and
the
last
thing
I'll
say,
and
a
lot
of
people
already
ask
questions.
F
So
I
want
to
ask
any
questions,
but
we
we
need
to
make
sure
that
we're
really
patient
with
everybody
when
this
happens
next
year,
because
there's
going
to
be
some
difficulties
as
far
as
numbers
are
concerned.
We
don't
know
how
many
students
are
going
to
stay
back,
so
everybody
is
going
to
need
to
be
patient.
The
legislator
is
going
to
be
patient
with,
what's
going
to
go
on,
parents
are
going
to
need
to
be
patient.
School
people
have
who
have
shown
unbelievable
patients
are
going
to
need
that.
It's
it's
not
going
to
be
easy.
F
A
C
C
H
C
C
C
C
A
G
A
G
Madam
chair
members,
this
will
be
very
brief.
Senate
bill.
225
relates
to
keys
kind
of
a
follow-up
to
what
128
does.
This
is
an
opportunity
bill.
It
allows
the
current
senior
class
if
they
had
a
better
gpa
their
junior
year
than
this
current
senior
year.
They
would
be
able
to
utilize
the
best
gpa
from
last
year
to
supplement
this
year.
G
A
B
C
A
K
C
H
C
F
One
of
the
things
that
I'm
attempting
to
do
is
to
I've
talked
to
people
in
the
budget
committee
about
trying
to
allow
our
seniors
our
juniors
of
this
year,
there'll
be
seniors
next
year
to
take
the
a.c.t
again
in
the
fall
of
next
year.
In
order
to
improve
their
score.
I
think
that
kind
of
goes
along
with
what
central
wise
is
trying
to
do
here,
because
that
also
improves
scholarship
opportunities.
E
A
Thank
you
senator
and
when
we
we
will
return
back
to
house
bill
163.
If,
mr
true
still
would
please
come
to
the
table,
I'll
just
remain
here.
It's
an
act
relating
to
teacher
certification.
This
come
about
when
we
started
discussing
prior
to,
I
think
it
was
1995.
A
Teachers
held
a
lifetime
certification
and
those
individuals
that
were
required
to
recertify
every
five
years
are
just
now
retiring
and
to
recertify.
There's
a
lot
of
stipulations
within
how
you
are
able
to
research.
So
we
wanted
to
make
that
easier
and
simpler
and
look
at
ways
that
we
could
get
people
back
into
the
classroom
or
people
that
had
left
the
the
career
of
education
and
entice
them
to
return.
So
I'm
going
to
let
mr
truesdale
introduce
himself
and
tell
you
some
specifics
of
what
we've
come
up
with.
Thank
you
for
joining
us.
I
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
Do
I
need
to
introduce
myself
again
because
I
think
everybody
knows
me
by
now
well
chuck
truesdell,
director
of
government
relations
for
the
kentucky
department
of
education.
Thank.
A
I
Thank
you,
ma'am.
There
are
two
provisions
in
the
committee
sub
on
house
bill
163,
and
they
apply
to
two
different
groups
of
teachers.
The
first
is
is
the
group
of
teachers
who
have
retired
or
who
are
within
one
year
of
retiring.
I
They
can
apply
for
a
10-year
what
we
call
an
emeritus
certificate.
The
other
group
is
is
a
group
that
has
left
the
classroom.
They
have
not
retired,
but
they
have
left
the
classroom
and
their
certification
has
lapsed
and
they
would
be
eligible
to
get
a
five-year
exception
certificate
anything
beyond
that
five
years
and
they
would
have
to
go
through
the
normal
process
to
get
their
five
years.
I
Epsb
would
promulgate
regs
related
to
that,
and
that
is
essentially
just
to
make
sure
that
they
indeed
did
retire
or
that
they
can
prove
that
they
had
the
requisite
experience
in
the
classroom
before
their
certificate
lapsed.
That
sort
of
thing.
A
Okay,
do
we
have
a
motion
on
the
sub
representative
miller?
Second
by
representative
massey,
all
in
favor
all
opposed
committee
sub
is
adopted.
B
C
B
I
C
C
A
House,
bill
163
passes
with
the
opinion
that
the
same
should
pass
with
the
committee
sub-attached.
Thank
you
so
much,
mr
truesdale,
for
joining
us
today,
members,
we
do
have
one
more
bill.
That
is
a
possibility
that
we
need
to
hear.
We
went
on
here
that
wednesday
just
watch
your
emails.
We
may
try
to
get
together
for
a
quick
meeting
just
to
hear
the
one
bill
on
thursday.
So
just
watch
your
emails.
Do
you
have
a
motion
for
adjournment
committee
is
adjourned.
