NCLB Requirements
for Teachers and Paraprofessionals |
To help you stay informed about the requirements in the No
Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB) that apply to teachers and
paraprofessionals, we are issuing a series of field memos. This
first field memo reflects questions from the field and
information received from the U.S. Department of Education as of
the date shown above.
We are posting our field memos about federal requirements for
teachers and paraprofessionals on the Department's Web site
at www.highered.nysed.gov.
Information about the State's certification
requirements for teachers and paraprofessionals is also
included on that Web site.
Thank you for sending us your comments and questions about NCLB. Please
continue to send your questions about the NCLB to nclbnys@mail.nysed.gov.
