Parent's Rights to Request Information Concerning Professional Qualifications of Teachers

Under the Federal statute, Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) Section 1111 (g) (2)(J), all parents/guardians of students attending a school that receives funding through Title I have the right to request information about the professional qualifications of classroom teachers instructing their child.  All K-3 elementary schools in OSSD do receive federal funding through Title I. Therefore, if you are interested in information regarding the professional qualifications of your child’s teachers, you may send a written request to the building principal who will provide a response.
