Regarding The Highly Qualified Status of Teachers

Parents have the right under the 2001 federal law called the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLBA) to request information regarding the Highly Qualified status of teachers.  The law requires that all teachers who teach core subjects meet certain criteria for their position by the start of the 2006-2007 school year.  Core subjects include:

  •  English (including English as a Second Language)
  •  Reading/Language Arts
  •  Math
  •  Science
  •  Foreign Language
  •  Social Studies
  •  Art
  •  Music
  •  Elementary Education
  •  Early Childhood Education (grades K-3 only)
