Teachers Teaching Out Of Field
September, 2012
Dear Parents/Guardians:
All educators in Florida are monitored to ensure they meet certification and training requirements as mandated by law. Per Florida Statute 1012.42, when a teacher is assigned teaching duties out of the field in which the teacher is certified, the parents of all students in the class shall be notified in writing. Per the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB), we are also required to notify parents when their child has been taught for four or more consecutive weeks by a teacher not highly qualified for that class.
Hillsborough County Public Schools is committed to providing quality instruction for all students and does so by employing the most qualified individuals to teach and support each student in the classroom. The district is assisting our teachers by developing an Individual Professional Development Plan to complete the requirements needed to become in-field and/or highly qualified.
All of our teachers are certified to teach, although some of them are currently out-of-field and/or not highly qualified (HQ) and are working on additional areas of certification. You have the right to know the professional qualifications of the teachers or paraprofessionals who instruct your child. Federal law allows you to ask for certain information about your child’s teachers and requires us to give you this information in a timely manner if you ask for it. If you would like more information, please contact the school at 975-7665.
The table below lists teachers who are currently out-of-field and/or not highly qualified (HQ).
Sincerely,
Heath Beauregard

Queridos Padres/Guardianes:
A todos los educadores en la Florida se les hace una monitorización para asegurar que tengan la certificación y formación según la ley vigente. Según el Estatuto de la Florida, 1012.42, cuando se le asigna a un professor o a una profesora responsbilidades docentes fuera del area de su certicación, se tiene que notificar a todos los padres de la clase por escrito. Según la ley No Child Left Behind (NCLB), también es necesario notificar a los padres cuando sus hijos sean enseñados por cuatro semanas consecutives o mas por un professor no altamente cualificado para esa clase.
Hillsborough County Public Schools (El Distrito Escolar de Hillsborough County) tiene la meta de proporcionar una alta calidad de enseñanza para todos de sus estudiantes y lo consigue empleando los individuos mas altamente cualificados para enseñar y apoyar a cada esudiante en la clase. El distrito ayuda a nuestros profesores en el desarrollo de su Individual Professional Development Plan para que los profesores puedan tener los requisitos para que estén dentro de su area de certificación y/o altamente cualificados.
Todos de nuestros profesores tienen su certificación, aunque algunos de ellos en estos momentos no están en su area de certificación y/o altamente cualificados (HQ) y están trabajando para obtener otros areas de certificación. Ustedes tienen el derecho de saber las cualificaciones de los profesores o paraprofesionales que enseñan a sus hijos. La ley Federal les permite pedir cierta información sobre los profesores de sus hijos y nos obliga a darles esta información en un tiempo breve si Ustedes lo piden. Si Ustedes desean mas información, por favor llamen al colegio a este teléfono 975-7665.
La table reseñada abajo les informa de los profesores que no están actualmente dentro de su area de certifcación y/o no altamente cualificados (HQ).
Sinceramente,
