HB 667 Pennsylvania House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

An Act amending the act of March 10, 1949 (P.L.30, No.14), known as the Public School Code of 1949, in professional employees, providing for restrictions on administrative meetings during instructional time or planning periods.

HB 667 amends Pennsylvania's Public School Code to protect classroom teachers' instructional and planning time. It prohibits requiring teachers to attend administrative meetings during teaching hours unless covered by another qualified teacher or substitute. If meetings occur during a teacher's designated planning period (time for lesson prep, parent communication, or grading), schools must offer compensatory time or replace the diverted time. The bill applies to all public school districts, joint districts, intermediate units, and career schools, taking effect 60 days after enactment.
