SB 2667 extends reporting requirements for educator misconduct to private schools and imposes penalties for failure to report. Private school administrators must notify the State Board for Educator Certification (SBEC) if an educator is terminated or resigns due to misconduct, including abuse, romantic relationships with students, financial fraud, or drug offenses. Failure to report can result in fines up to $10,000, certification suspension, or a state jail felony if done with intent to conceal. The bill also mandates an online reporting system and equal access for public and private schools to misconduct reports​.
