Special Education HQ Requirements • All elementary level special education teachers must meet NCLB HQ requirements. • All secondary level special education teachers that are sole providers of content must meet NCLB HQ requirements. • Secondary teachers working with students working toward alternate standards (e.g., CoAlt) must be elementary qualified.

  10. Sole Provider of Content at the Secondary Level Yes No Teacher co-teaches with another HQ teacher. Teacher provides consultation. Teacher pre-teaches or re-teaches concepts. Teacher provides additional practice opportunities (e.g., second dip). • Teacher introduces core content and provides full lesson on key concepts to students. OR • Teacher makes instructional decisions for students (e.g., assessments, curricular design).

  11. Additional HQ resources • HOUSSE rubrics http://www.cde.state.co.us/fedprograms/tii/a_hqt_genresforhqt.asp • List of out-of-state elementary assessments http://www.cde.state.co.us/sites/default/files/documents/fedprograms/dl/tii_a_hqt_listofoselemassessments.xls • 24 semester hour determinationhttp://www.cde.state.co.us/cdeprof/Licensure_addendorsment_info#endorsements • HQ handbook http://www.cde.state.co.us/sites/default/files/documents/fedprograms/dl/tii_a_hqt_cohqhandbook.pdf

  13. HR Coding Reminders • If a teacher works with elementary and secondary level students, create two assignment records. • If teacher passed a CO test, data will come from licensing database (do not fill in “state core content test administered”). • General 7th/8th Grade (subject area code = 0015) is run through elementary HQ determinations.

  14. HR Coding Reminders (cont.) • If secondary sped teacher is sole provider use appropriate subject area code. If not, use 1700. • If secondary sped teacher works exclusively with CoAlt students (subject area = 0070), then run through elementary HQ determinations. • Make sure “years of experience” is correct. This is the only way to trigger a HOUSSE rubric. • Subject area code – 0695 – for foreign languages that do not have an endorsement. These will not run through HQ determinations.

  15. HR Coding Reminders (cont.) • Admin/instructional code 0039 (CEIS) will run through HQ determinations. • Admin/instructional codes for ESL teachers • ESL is primary teacher of reading. Teacher needs to be HQ. Use code = 0011. • ESL teacher provides follow-up instruction in reading. Teacher does not need to be HQ. Use code = 1011. • Admin/Instructional code – 1012 – for Gifted and Talented teachers who do not teach core content
