Parents' Right to Know- Teacher Qualifications

In accordance with the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), parents of children attending schools that receive Title I funds have the right to request information about the professional qualifications of their child’s classroom teachers.

Upon request, our district will provide timely information about:

  • Whether your child’s teacher has met Ohio’s state qualification and licensing requirements for the grade levels and subject areas they teach.

  • Whether the teacher is teaching under an emergency or provisional status, in which state requirements have been waived.

  • Whether the teacher is teaching in the field of their certification.

  • Whether your child is provided services by paraprofessionals, and if so, their qualifications.

We value the partnership between families and schools and encourage you to reach out if you would like more information about your child’s teacher(s).

For more information or to request teacher qualification details, please contact:
