Adopts the "Interstate Teacher Mobility Compact"

HB 2274 adopts Missouri into the "Interstate Teacher Mobility Compact," a multi-state agreement designed to simplify teacher licensure across participating states. The bill creates a streamlined pathway for teachers to move between member states, supports eligible military spouses relocating due to military service, and enables sharing of licensure and disciplinary information among states. It establishes an interstate commission to manage the compact and requires member states to recognize teaching licenses from other participating states without requiring additional exams or training. This directly affects teachers seeking employment in Missouri from other compact states, military spouses of active-duty service members, and education officials hiring out-of-state teachers. The compact aims to remove barriers to teacher mobility while maintaining each state's authority over teaching regulations.
