So far as is practical and consistent with the duties assigned to the commission by the State Board of Education, at least seven of the 13 public members appointed by the State Board of Education shall be persons, who because they have taught, written, or lectured on the subject matter fields specified in Section 33533, in the course of public or private employment, have become recognized authorities or experienced practitioners in such fields. The State Board of Education shall make its appointments so as to ensure that, at any one time, at least seven of the public members shall be current classroom teachers, or mentor teachers, or both assigned to teach kindergarten or any of grades 1 to 12, inclusive.
Notwithstanding the requirement that seven of the public members shall be current classroom teachers or mentor teachers, current members of the commission who were appointed on or before December 31, 1989, shall be allowed to complete their terms.
In making the remaining appointments to the commission, and in establishing the commission's advisory task forces or committees, the State Board of Education is encouraged to consider the role of other representatives of the educational community in the development of curriculum and instructional materials, including, but not limited to, administrators, governing school board members and parents who are reflective of the various ethnic groups and types of school districts in California.
