1. A cooperating teacher incentive program is established to encourage experienced teachers to serve as cooperating teachers for student teachers enrolled in the institutions of higher education under the control of the board.
2. An individual who submits evidence to an institution that the individual has satisfactorily served as a cooperating teacher for a student teacher from any of the institutions of higher education under the control of the board for the duration of the student teaching experience shall receive from the institution either a monetary recompense or a reduction in tuition for graduate hours of coursework equivalent to the value of the monetary recompense, rounded to the nearest whole credit hour.
a. If, because of a policy adopted by the board of directors employing the teacher, the amount of the monetary recompense is not made available to the teacher for the teacher's own personal use or the salary paid to the cooperating teacher by the employing board is correspondingly reduced, the institution shall grant the teacher the reduction in tuition pursuant to this section in lieu of the monetary recompense.
b. In lieu of the payment of monetary recompense to a cooperating teacher, the cooperating teacher may direct that the monetary recompense be paid by the institution directly into a scholarship fund which has been established jointly by the board of directors of the school district that employs the teacher and the local teachers' association. In such cases, the cooperating teacher shall receive neither monetary recompense nor any reduction in tuition at the institution.
