          <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Teacher and School Leader Quality Partnership Grants Act&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This bill reauthorizes through FY2031 and expands the Teacher Quality Partnership program (which provides grants to improve the quality of teachers and enhance professional development activities).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Specifically, the bill expands the program&amp;nbsp;to include training and professional development opportunities for principals and other school leaders.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Currently under the program, eligible partnerships must be comprised of (1) a high-need local educational agency; (2) a high-need school or early childhood education program; (3) a partner institution; and (4) certain schools, departments, or programs within a partner institution. The bill requires these partnerships, in their preparation or residency programs, to use evidence-based methods and adhere to an evaluation plan that includes comprehensive performance objectives.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Additionally, the bill authorizes grants&amp;nbsp;for the establishment of professional development programs for teachers who remain in the classroom while also carrying out formalized leadership responsibilities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The bill also establishes an advisory committee within the Department of Education to conduct a feasibility study that, among other things, compiles best practices for educating and training profession-ready teachers and school leaders.&lt;/p&gt;</text>
