Teacher Qualifications for Title I Schools

Under federal Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) provisions, all school districts are required to notify parents of children who attend a Title I school that they have the right to request and receive timely information on the professional qualifications of their children’s classroom teachers. Specifically, upon request, districts must provide the following information:

• Whether the teacher has met state qualifying and licensing criteria for the grade levels and subject areas in which the teacher is teaching;
• Whether the teacher is teaching under emergency or other provisional status;
• The baccalaureate degree major of the teacher and any other graduate certification or degree held by the teacher, including the field of discipline of the certification or degree;
• Whether the child is provided services by paraprofessionals and, if so, their qualifications.
