Our district receives funding from many resources, one of which is Title I, Part A, a grant provided by the federal government. As a requirement for receiving funds under this program, schools must meet the guidelines for “highly qualified teachers and paraprofessionals” in each subject area using a system approved by the Michigan Board of Education.
You, as a parent, may request the following information regarding the qualifications of educators who work with your child in a Title I program:
- Certification for grade level and subject;
- Emergency or provisional teaching certificate status;
- BA major and graduate degrees; and
- Whether your child is provided services by paraprofessionals.
Also, the district will notify you when your child is being taught for four (4) consecutive weeks by teachers NOT highly qualified.
If you would like to receive this information, please put your request in writing to Katherine Blakley at 851 Sixth Avenue, Three Rivers, MI 49093. A response to your request for information will be provided in five business days.
