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.
