The Prairie du Chien School District is are very proud of our teachers and feel they are ready to give your child a high-quality education. All of the PdC schools are School Wide Title I Schools, so we must meet federal rules related to teacher qualifications as defined in No Child Left Behind (NCLB). These rules allow you to learn more about your child’s teachers’ training and credentials. We are happy to provide this information to you. At any time, you may ask:
- Whether the teacher met state qualifications and certification requirements of the grade level and subject he/she is teaching,
- Whether the teacher received an emergency or conditional certificate through which state qualifications were waived, and
- What undergraduate or graduate degrees the teacher holds, including graduate certificates and additional degrees, and major(s) or area(s) of concentration.
You may also ask whether your child receives help from a paraprofessional. If your child receives this assistance, we can provide you with information about the paraprofessional’s qualifications.
Our staff is committed to helping your child develop the academic knowledge and critical thinking he/she needs to succeed in school and beyond. That commitment includes making sure that all of our teachers and paraprofessionals are highly skilled.
If you are interested in looking into matters on your own, you may go to the DPI License Lookup to search the Wisconsin DPI's information.
