PARENTS’ RIGHT TO KNOW

As a parent of a student enrolled in a Title I school, you have the right to know the professional qualifications of the classroom teachers and instructional assistants who instruct your child.  You may ask for the following information:

·         Whether the teacher’s certificate is a waiver or sub-standard certificate

·         The teacher’s academic major, graduate degrees, if any, and

·         The teacher’s certification area

If you would like to receive this information, you may contact your child’s principal.
