House Education Chair Mark White, R-Memphis, discusses new legislation that will create a ten-member advisory committee appointed by state leaders to study the state’s testing and teacher evaluation systems, the academic requirements for career and technical education (CTE) students, whether schools should have a minimum number of required instructional hours, and the licensure requirements for teachers. That committee would begin meeting later this year and issue a report by the end of December.
