Every

each application are the needs of the position, the experience and
training of the candidate, and the pool of candidates available. Each
person hired for a teaching position must be eligible for some type of
certification through the Missouri Department of Elementary and
Secondary Education (DESE), but there are a variety of options
available. For more information on certification, please consult the
DESE website at http://www.dese.mo.gov/divteachqual/teachcert/.
