To provide school districts with an additional pathway to hire personnel as a school social worker. The effect will be that schools will be able to hire more professionals by creating an additional pathway for districts to hire qualified social workers to work in their schools.

SUMMARY:

This rule amendment would allow Florida school districts to hire social workers licensed by another state agency to be employed by the school district and work in schools without a Florida Educator Certificate. These provisions already exist in this rule for occupational therapists, physical therapists, audiologists, and speech pathologists.
