2023 - 2024  LEGISLATURE  
2023 ASSEMBLY BILL 1103
February 20, 2024 - Introduced by LAW REVISION COMMITTEE. Referred to
Committee on Rules.
***AUTHORS SUBJECT TO CHANGE***
AN ACT to repeal 118.19 (2); and to amend 115.28 (7) (a) and 115.341 (1) of the
statutes; relating to: requirements for school breakfast reimbursement and
repealing a teaching license requirement (suggested as remedial legislation by
the Department of Public Instruction).
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, the state superintendent must reimburse a school board or
the governing body of a private school or tribal school for each breakfast served at
a school that meets certain federal regulatory requirements.  Current law contains
a reference to a federal regulation that was, by rule, deleted and incorporated into
current federal school breakfast regulations.  This bill removes that reference.
The bill repeals a provision that 1) until the end of the 1971-72 school year,
prohibited the issuance of a certificate or license to teach in any public school unless
the applicant had completed two years of post-high school education devoted to
pedagogical instruction and training; and 2) allowed any teacher who taught in any
public school during or before the 1937-38 school year to continue to teach in public
schools without complying with that educational requirement.

Committee of the Joint Legislative Council.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do

 ASSEMBLY BILL 1103
LAW REVISION COMMITTEE PREFATORY NOTE: This bill is a remedial legislation
proposal, requested by the Department of Public Instruction and introduced by the Law
Revision Committee under s. 13.83 (1) (c) 4. and 5., stats. After careful consideration of
the various provisions of the bill, the Law Revision Committee has determined that this
bill makes minor substantive changes in the statutes, and that these changes are
desirable as a matter of public policy.
SECTION 1. 115.28 (7) (a) of the statutes, as affected by 2023 Wisconsin Act 20,
is amended to read:
115.28 (7) (a) License all teachers for the public schools of the state; make rules
establishing standards of attainment and procedures for the examination and
licensing of teachers within the limits prescribed in ss. 118.19 (2) and (3), 118.191,
118.1915, 118.192, 118.193, 118.194, 118.195, and 118.197; prescribe by rule
standards, requirements, and procedures for the approval of teacher preparatory
programs leading to licensure, including a requirement that, to be approved by the
state superintendent, a teacher preparatory program shall demonstrate that it
provides instruction that prepares teachers to teach reading and language arts using
science-based early reading instruction, as defined in s. 118.015 (1c) (b), and does not
provide instruction on teaching reading and language arts that incorporates
3-cueing, as defined in s. 118.015 (1c) (c), and a requirement that, beginning on July
1, 2012, and annually thereafter, each teacher preparatory program located in this
state shall submit to the department a list of individuals who have completed the
program and who have been recommended by the program for licensure under this
subsection, together with each individual's date of program completion, from each
term or semester of the program's most recently completed academic year; file in the
