Teachers; modifying amount of credit school districts may grant for certain service in the minimum salary schedule. Effective date. Emergency.

SB 510 limits how much teaching experience from military service or out-of-state/out-of-country schools can count toward Oklahoma teachers' state salary increases. Specifically, it caps credit at five years for military service and out-of-state teaching experience when calculating minimum salary schedules. This applies to certified teachers in Oklahoma public schools who have such experience. The bill does not change the actual salary amounts in the schedule but modifies how experience is counted for salary increments.
