The federal law, No Child Left Behind, requires that any local school district receiving federal dollars under Title I, Improving the Academic Achievement of the Disadvantaged, must notify parents/guardians of students attending Title I schools (i.e., Brent and Cottonwood) that they may request information regarding the professional qualifications of the student’s classroom teacher, including the following: (1) whether the teacher has met the Ohio teacher licensing criteria for the grade level and subject areas in which the teacher provides instruction, (2) whether the teacher is teaching under emergency or temporary status that waives State licensing requirements, (3) the college degree major of the teacher and any other graduate degree of certification, such as National Board Certification, and (4) whether the child is provided services by instructional paraprofessionals, sometimes called teacher aides, and their qualifications. Parents/guardians may request this information by calling the Board of Education offices at 728-3700.
