Online applicants applying for certified positions will need to include a current transcript. Upon being hired, you will be required to submit an official transcript from every college and/or university attended. An applicant must have at least a bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university* as well as a Texas Educator Certificate, review of out-of-state credentials by State Board of Educator Certification (SBEC), a Statement of Eligibility from an alternative education program, or qualified work experience for certain Career and Technical Education areas.**

*If you have obtained a bachelor’s degree, you are eligible to become an educator through Path 2 Teaching.

**Exceptions to the degree rule may be made for teachers of vocational and trade classes who submit trade and industrial training records in compliance with Texas Education Agency (TEA) requirements.

All instructional assistants must have 48 college/university hours and/or must pass the district’s Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) test and/or must have a Texas educational aide certificate.

Certification

• If you have Texas certification, we will be able to access your credentials from SBEC online.

• If you are not yet certified in Texas, but have Texas Examinations of Educator Standards (TExES.) scores, we will ask for those during the interview.

Please return to your online application and update the information there every six months to renew your application. It is important to remember your password and user ID for this purpose.
