Title One: Parents Right to Know

Parents may request information regarding the professional qualifications of the student’s classroom teacher, including at a minimum:

• Whether the teacher has met state qualifications and licensing criteria for the grade levels and subject areas in which the teacher provides instruction;
• Whether the teacher is teacher under emergency or other provisional status through which state qualifications or licensing criteria have been waived;
• The baccalaureate degree major of the teacher and any other graduate certification or degree held by the teacher, and the field of discipline of the certification or degree; and
• Whether the child is provided services by paraprofessionals and, if so, their qualifications.
• Information on the level of achievement of the parent’s child in each of the state academic assessments as required under this part; and
• Timely notice that the parent’s child has been assigned or has been taught for four or more consecutive weeks by a teacher who is not highly qualified.
