Highly Qualified Data

*Highly Qualified - No Child Left Behind requires school districts to ensure that all teachers hired to teach core academic subjects in Title I programs are highly qualified.

In general a "highly qualified teacher" is one with full certification, a bachelor's degree and demonstrated competence in subject knowledge and teaching. (Core subjects include English, reading or language arts, mathematics, science, foreign languages, civics and government, economics, arts, history and geography.)

The act also calls for all teachers of the core academic subjects (teaching in Title I programs or elsewhere) to be highly qualified by the end of school year 2005-06.
