New Mexico Administrative Code
Title 6 - PRIMARY AND SECONDARY EDUCATION
Chapter 60 - SCHOOL PERSONNEL - GENERAL PROVISIONS
Part 4 - LICENSURE RECIPROCITY
Section 6.60.4.12 - IMPLEMENTATION
Persons who meet the requirements in this rule may obtain a license at a level established by the PED unless otherwise barred by statute or PED rule. The PED may issue new licenses to persons impacted by amendments in this rule with the same beginning effective dates as their original licenses. Out of state licenses that are expired will only be considered in determining a person's eligibility to receive licensure or licensure endorsement under this rule if the person has provided at least one currently valid license. Except for a certificate issued by the national board for professional teaching standards, the fact that a person seeking reciprocal licensure holds a valid out of state license or endorsement shall not in itself entitle that person to any presumption regarding the issuance of a PED license or endorsement. Nothing in this rule shall prevent a local superintendent from establishing a policy requiring a person who receives reciprocal licensure to participate in a mentorship program.
