Important Instructions for Changes on Teaching Certificates
|
|
|
Listed below are the most frequently requested changes to Teaching Certificates. Any changes to a certificate require the following materials which must be forwarded to the Personnel Department at the time that the requested change is submitted:
(All checks and money orders must be made payable to the LOUISIANA STATE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION)
There is a new form called Professional Conduct Form that will need to be sent with any changes on certificates. |
ADDING A DEGREE:
Official Transcript, Original Certificate and a $25.00 check or money order. |
ADDITIONAL AREA/S OF CERTIFICATION:
Written explanation of areas to be added, Official Transcript and a $25.00 check or money order.
Note - The Certification, SUPERVISOR OF STUDENT TEACHING can only be added if you are eligible for a 'B' Certificate or already on a 'B' Certificate or applying for an 'A' Certificate. |
APPLYING FOR 'B' or 'A' CERTIFICATE UPGRADE:
Complete and return the enclosed request form (principals, please ask your secretary to keep one of these Application for Higher Certificate forms as your MASTER), copy of most current certificate, and a $25.00 check or money order. All 'C' Certificates MUST be upgraded after teacher has had it for (3) years (see issue date at top of teaching certificate) A 'B' Certificate is Valid For Life. If the teacher receives a Masters and also has (5) five years teaching in their Certified field, their Certificate should be upgraded to an 'A' Certificate.
Note - All 'C' Certificates expire after (3) three years! If the teacher does not have (3) three years teaching in their CERTIFIED FIELD, then the Certificate needs to be EXTENDED. No form is needed to extend a Certificate, only a copy of certificate and a $25,00 check or money order. |
Principals should check the certificates for teachers who hold a 'C' Certificate and determine when it needs to be upgraded. If the Certificate expires at the end of this school year or during the summer , our office needs to apply for the upgrade before school is out.
THIS WILL ELIMINATE DEFICIENCIES FOR OUT-DATED TEACHING CERTIFICATES ON THE ANNUAL SCHOOL REPORTS. |
| NAME CHANGES: A copy of teacher's marriage license, copy of teaching certificate, a $25.00 check or money order, and a written statement which states the exact name as teacher wants it to appear on the teaching certificate are needed. If the teacher is divorced and wishes to drop married name, a copy of divorce decree, copy of teaching certificate, and a $25.00 check or money order is needed. |
| The State Department has requested that all changes in teaching certificates should be handled through the Personnel Department. Send all transactions Attention: Regena Anzalone. Numerous requests that were sent directly to the State Department by teachers have been returned because they lack the signature of the appropriate School System Official. Principals are not authorized to sign these APPLICATION FOR HIGHER CERTIFICATE FORMS. If there are any questions concerning these procedures or teachers have questions concerning filling in the forms, please contact the Personnel Office at
985-748-2505 or 985-748-2503 and we will be happy to assist you. |
