Action Items Type Action Preferred Date Aug 04, 2026 Absolute Date Aug 04, 2026 Fiscal Impact No Budgeted No Budget Source That the Board of Education consider and approve Provisional Intern Permit and applications Recommended Action That the Board of Education consider and approve Provisional Intern Permit applications BACKGROUND: In order to exercise additional options in which to fill vacant certificated positions, Human Resources will be submitting Provisional Intern Permit applications to the Board for approval. The teachers on the attached list hold a California Preliminary Teaching Credential in their respective subject areas. The permit requests are for specific credential areas and specialty areas/subject area authorizations as teachers continue to work towards their subject matter requirement. The PIP was developed to address the “anticipated staffing need” of when a school district is aware that a position will be open and conducts a diligent search for a credentialed teacher, but is unable to recruit one. PIPs are for intern candidates who have not yet achieved subject matter. The limited assignment permit was developed to fill the school district’s teaching position vacancies by allowing fully credentialed teachers to teach outside their authorized areas while completing the requirements to earn the required authorization. This approval authorizes and delegates to the Superintendent, or her designee, to take all necessary measures and action to obtain the approval of these credential permits.

These options are intended to address staffing needs while ensuring that instruction is delivered by qualified educators. The Human Resources team has been working with the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing to identify all the new employees who need local assignments. When making such assignments, districts must comply with all statutory requirements, including: Verification that the employee holds a valid California teaching credential Written consent of the employee to the assignment Governing board approval at a public meeting Annual renewal of the local assignment option File Attachments August 4, 2026 Resolution LAO's under EC §44831 - Speech Path License, EC §44256(b) MS Cred to teach Dept 8th & Below, T5§80020.4 Staff Development.pdf (291 KB) D.
