The board approved a School District Teaching Permit application, which allows certain individuals to teach without a standard state teaching certificate.

What it means for you

This permit allows HISD to bring a non-traditionally certified individual into a classroom, which could affect students taught by that person.

Outcome

Adopted as part of the board's consent agenda, not by individual vote: "On motion by board member Rosales, with a second by Board Secretary Mendoza, the board voted to approve the items on the consent agenda."
