AZ HB2255

Extends Arizona Teachers Academy scholarship eligibility for community college students from two academic years (four semesters) to four academic years (eight semesters) to cover tuition and fees associated with teacher preparation programs.

Requires students receiving scholarships to teach one full school year in an Arizona public school for each academic year of scholarship received, with reimbursement required if teaching obligations are not fulfilled.

Applies to community college students pursuing teacher certification through the Arizona Teachers Academy, which provides tuition and fee scholarships after accounting for other financial aid received.

Requires a three-fourths vote of both legislative chambers for enactment, as mandated by the Arizona Constitution.
