For advising Parents of the Right to Know Information about Teacher’s Qualifications as Required by NCLB (P.L. 107-10, section 19).

Dear Parent/Guardian,

At R.B. Dean-Townsend School, we are very proud of our teachers and feel they are ready for the coming school year and ae prepared to give your child a high-quality education. AS a Title 1 school, we must meet federal rules related to teacher qualification as defined I NO Child Left Behind. These rules allow you to learn more about your child’s teacher training and credentials. We are happy to provide this information to you. At any time, you may ask:

  • Whether the teacher has met State qualifications and certification requirements for the grade level and subject he/she is teaching,

  • Whether the teacher received an emergency or conditional certificate through which state qualifications were waived, and

  • Whether the teacher received an emergency or conditional certificate

  • What undergraduate or graduate degrees the teacher holds, including graduate certificates and additional degrees, and major (s) or areas(s) of concentration.

You may also ask whether your child receives help from a paraprofessional. If you child receives this assistance, we can provide you with information about the paraprofessional’s qualifications.

Our staff is committed to helping your child develop academic knowledge and critical thinking he/she needs to succeed in school and beyond. That commitment includes making sure that our teachers and paraprofessionals are highly skilled.

If you have any questions about your child’s assignment to a teacher or paraprofessional, please contact me at 910-84-5086

Sincerely,

Angela Faulkner
