Explanation of above estimates (including long-range effect):
This legislation will require $10,000 each year to implement at the West Virginia Department of Education (WVDE). This cost includes rental of training rooms and food for participants.
Memorandum
The bill does not specify how often the trainings should be made available to teachers or what is required to be provided as documentation of their completion of the training. Additionally, we consider Social Studies teachers to be core content instructors just as ELA, Math, and Science.
