[QUOTE="Sheila, post: 58975, member: 23"] Found the following from US Dept of Education at [url]https://web.archive.org/web/20130331085823/http://www2.ed.gov/PressReleases/07-2000/0726_2.html[/url] . It is dated 2004, so there may be more recent info. E-2. What qualifications do teachers in charter schools have to meet under NCLB? The law provides that a teacher who teaches core academic subjects in a charter school meets the certification requirement if he or she meets the requirements set forth in a States charter school law regarding certification or licensure [Section 9101(23)(A)(i)]. Thus, a teacher in a charter school does not have to be licensed or certified by the State if the States charter law does not require such licensure or certification. All other elements of the highly qualified teacher requirement apply to charter school teachers in the same way, and on the same timeline, that they apply to teachers in traditional public schools. There's been some bad press on Charter Schools in Texas also. I wouldn't allow difficult child to go to a Charter School unless it had a good, long-term track record. [/QUOTE]
