Specifically, you have the right to ask for the following information about each of your child's classroom teachers.
1. Whether the teacher has met all Delaware licensing and certification requirements for the grades and subjects he or she teaches.
2. Whether the teacher is teaching under an emergency or other provisional certificate because of special circumstances.
3. The teacher's major, whether the teacher has any advanced degrees and, if so, the subject of the degrees, and
4- Whether any paraprofessionals provide services to your child and, if they do, their qualifications.
If you would like to receive any of this information, please contact Audrey M. Erschen at telephone (302) 653-6726 or e mail aerschen@pca.k12.de.us.
