BY PROMULGATING AGENCY.

The South Carolina Department of Education (SCDE) recommends that the State Board of Education propose amendments to Regulation 43205.1, Assisting, Developing, and Evaluating Professional Teaching (ADEPT), to align the regulation with the 2012 amendments to the ADEPT statute (S.C. Code Ann. § 592640 (Supp. 2012)) and the 2012 amendments to State Board of Education R.4353 (Credential Classification), as well as with the variations regarding the dates by which districts are permitted and required to issue employment offers to teachers.

The Notice of Drafting for the proposed amendments was published in the State Register on August 24, 2012.
