What changed in the latest version
9 added · 10 removedPlain-language change summary
The latest version of Senate Bill 166 has clarified the language regarding the State Board of Education's ability to waive certain requirements. It now emphasizes that this waiver can occur if there is a "showing of good cause." This change is important because it sets a clear condition for the waiving process, which could affect how educational requirements are applied in North Carolina.
