A Board approved Annual Declaration is necessary per California Code of Regulations Title 5, §80025.5c in order to meet the District’s specified employment criteria requiring English Language Learner Authorizations for teachers.  In the event we hire teachers who obtained their credentials outside California, we may need to apply for Emergency English Language Learner Authorizations while they meet the requirements.  The Annual Declaration is necessary per Title 5, §80053(b)(1) for the District’s anticipated need of Permits for Multiple Subjects, Single Subjects, and Special Education Teachers.  We are advertising and recruiting to fill our needs and first seek candidates who meet the credential requirements for open positions.
