Senate Bill 14 allows some retired Louisiana teachers to return to classrooms while keeping their benefits

Senate Bill 14 in Louisiana allows retired teachers who retired by June 30, 2010, and are at least 65 years old to return to classrooms while retaining 25-100% of their retirement benefits. Supporters argue the law addresses staffing shortages, provides mentorship for new teachers, and offers economic benefits by re-engaging retirees. The law's impact on the Teachers’ Retirement System will be reviewed in 2034.
