The Student Success Act is part of his objective of creating 700,000 new jobs for Florida residents over the next seven years.
This legislation will make major changes in the way teachers are paid and evaluated. It originated as SB 736 and HB 7019. It will tie 50 percent of a teacher's salary to the growth of their students as measured on standardized test scores. It is place all newly hired teachers on annual contracts and eventually eliminate tenure. Florida teachers unions have opposed this legislation and many teachers will be protesting in Tallahassee. A large group of teachers left Miami on March 23 to participate in a Rally in Tally protesting the legislation. The Florida Education Association may file a lawsuit against this new law.
