Title | Hignly qualified teacher status, guidelines |
Body | What highly qualified means in your state... The purpose of the No Child Left Behind highly qualified teacher requirements is to make certain that all students are taught by teachers who really know the content of the subjects that they teach. In many cases, teachers have significant experience, professional development, and other content-related experiences to prove a high level of competence in their out-of-field subjects. No Child Left Behind (NCLB) provides an avenue--HOUSSE (the High Objective Uniform State Standard of Evaluation)--for veteran teachers to become highly qualified without having to take a test or go back to college. Most states have developed a HOUSSE and their teachers are using it to meet the highly qualified component of NCLB. The Education Commission of the States (ECS) developed a database of state HOUSSEs that allows you to view online what your state requires (Confirm with your state licensing agency that the ECS database is up-to-date and accurate.). The database is available at: http://mb2.ecs.org/reports/Report.aspx?id=140 |
