Summary
Ohio House Bill 880 makes an appropriation to fully reimburse teacher stipends for completing professional development in the science of reading. The science of reading is an evidence-based instructional approach based on research about how students learn to read. Teachers who complete this professional development training receive stipends or bonuses, which schools currently pay. The bill provides state funding to fully reimburse schools for these stipends, helping offset the cost of training teachers in this literacy instruction method.
