§ 23-8.2:1. Compensation of cooperating teachers
In addition to the provisions of § 22.1-290.1 relating to compensation of certain licensed teachers while engaged in supervising and evaluating student teachers, any institution of higher education engaged in educating students to be teachers may, from such funds as may be available for such purpose, develop and implement a program to compensate public-school or private-school teachers who agree to be cooperating teachers as defined in this section. Such compensation programs may provide for payment in the form of money or in the form of authorization to enroll, without charge, for a designated number of credit hours in the school, department, or other unit of the relevant institution of higher education in which the student teacher being supervised is enrolled.
For the purposes of this section, "cooperating teacher" means an individual licensed by the Board of Education who meets the criteria established by the relevant institution of higher education and is engaged in supervising and evaluating one or more student teachers.
