Plain-language change summary

The recent amendments to SB 593 change how out-of-state teachers and school principals can obtain licenses in New Mexico. Now, they can be granted a level two or level three license if they have the necessary experience, competencies, and pass a background check. Additionally, if they don't meet the full requirements for a higher license, they can still apply for a lower level license. These changes aim to make it easier for qualified educators from other states to work in New Mexico, addressing potential teacher shortages.
