NCLB Highly Qualified Teacher and Paraprofessional Database
This database contains research on state Highly Qualified Teacher (HQT) definitions; High, Objective, Uniform State Standards of Evaluation (HOUSSE) options; Title I paraprofessional requirements and much more.
Over the last few months states have been, and are currently, revising plans to have highly qualified teachers in every classroom. Many changes have been made to states' HQT and HOUSSE definitions and policies as a consequence of these revisions.
ECS is tracking these changes as information is made available by states in an attempt to keep this database as current as possible. Please contact ECS with any new information for your state.
