Department of Education; teacher, other instructional personnel, and support staff shortages; data collection and reporting; reporting of demographic data and reason for exits required. Requires each school board to include in its annual report to the Department of Education on the number and type of teacher, other instructional personnel, and support staff exits in the school division, for each such exit occurring during the reporting year, (i) the race and ethnicity of the individual and (ii) the reason for the exit, including whether the exit of such individual was voluntary or involuntary. The bill also requires the Department to annually report such data on its website with such data reported (a) in the aggregate and (b) by school division and disaggregated by race and ethnicity, employment category or classification, and reason for the exit, to the extent that such disaggregation would not result in the disclosure of any individual's personally identifiable information.
