The Illinois legislature is considering a bill that would provide up to $8,000 over 2 years to NBCTs working in hard-to-staff schools, which are those with 30% or more low-income students. Illinois legislators need to hear your support before this bill comes up for a vote.

We urge you to send a message to your legislators telling them how being a National Board Certified Teacher has strengthened your teaching and benefited your students. This will help legislators understand why it’s important to increase the number of NBCTs in hard-to-staff schools. Encourage your legislators to vote YES on HB 3801!
