Teachers, Principals and School Personnel - As enacted, revises law relative to leave for teachers. - Amends TCA Title 49.

HB 2343 increases the amount of personal and professional leave teachers in Tennessee accumulate, changing the rate from one day per half-year to two days per half-year. This directly affects K-12 teachers and school personnel covered under Tennessee Code Annotated Sections 49-5-711 and 49-5-205. The bill amends these sections to require local school boards to allow teachers two days of leave for each half-year worked, up from the current one-day rate. The change will take effect on July 1, 2026, if passed.
