Good morning, Many of us are very excited about the legislative movement on VCLA with both the House and Senate signing a bill to eliminate the requirement. This bill is currently on the Governor's desk https://legiscan.com/VA/bill/HB731/2024<https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flegiscan.com%2FVA%2Fbill%2FHB731%2F2024&data=05%7C02%7CCOE-TEACHER-EDUCATION-UNIT-L%40IT-LISTSERV1.JMU.EDU%7Ce5c06bc2db834db8232308dc4760dd94%7Ce9333c23cac742f499895cee3d4a79c0%7C0%7C0%7C638463728549003045%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=FGTrkSO5dQZJw1fj5on8LgyzTzpXwCkI%2Fqm240sWAAw%3D&reserved=0>. If and hopefully when he signs, the Board of Education and Department of Education will contact us regarding implementation - any other requirements that may be enacted - and timelines. At this time, the VCLA continues to be a requirement for our candidates. I will send an update when something changes!
