MACTA position statement letter with regards to (HF1329/SF1557) bills, Feb 2019
From Minnesota Professional Educator Standards and Licensing Board (Wed/April 25, 2018)
Notification of Board Action
Extension of permission, waivers, variances, and temporary limited licenses in effect on January 1, 2018
At the March 9, 2018 Professional Educator Licensing and Standards Board (PELSB) meeting, the Board authorized that all permissions, waivers, variances, and temporary limited licenses in effect on January 1, 2018 be extended one school year. This Board action was authorized by the laws of Minnesota 2017, 1st. Spec Sess. chapter 5, article 3, section 34.
**While advertisement is not a requirement for extended permissions, waivers, variances, and temporary limited licenses, the board recommends advertisement in order to hire a fully licensed teacher for the needed teaching assignments.**
PLEASE NOTE:
- Licenses and permissions issued after January 1, 2018 will not be granted an extension of an additional school year. The PELSB staff is currently working to enter the one school year extension on the applicable permissions, waivers, variances and temporary limited licenses in effect on January 1, 2018. Candidates will receive an email once this has been updated.
- The extension for the 18-19 school year is only valid if the extended licensee/permission holder(s) remains with the Minnesota public or charter school district who signed for them and in the licensure area(s) originally requested.
- The Minnesota public or charter school district is not required to rehire the same individual(s) for the 18-19 school year as a result of this automatic one school year extension.
- The printed license in License Lookup will retain the original renewal date and will not be updated with the one school year extension. The extended date will be viewable in the details section only. ***Note: Permissions, waivers and variances are only viewable in the details section as they do not show on the license.***
You can view the extension in the details section under Educator License Lookup.
- Go to the PELSB home page
- Click on the Educator License Lookup link in the upper right corner of the page above the search, or
- Select License Lookup on the PELSB home page under MN Educator License Lookup
