Teacher Certification
A valid Florida Educator's Certificate is required under Florida Law by all teachers. The Human Resources Department staff will be happy to assist you with the certification process. However, securing and updating a certificate is the responsibility of the teacher. Our office is here to provide guidance, but the teacher must fulfill the requirements and complete all procedures.
