State Report HQ Data
The Elementary and Secondary Education Act, known as No Child Left Behind, §1111(h)(1)(C)(viii) requires each state to include in its Annual State Report Card data on the percentage of classes (in core academic subjects) not taught by highly qualified teachers, data on the professional qualifications of teachers, and the percentage of teachers with emergency or provisional credentials.
As of June 30, 2006, South Carolina does not issue emergency or provisional credentials for teachers of core academic subjects.
Teacher qualifications can be accessed at Educator Qualification Search.
