Parent Right to Know

West Plains R-VII School District

Parents Right to Know 

Our district is required to inform you of information that you, according to the Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 (Public Law 114-95), have the right to know.
  • Whether your student's teacher has met State qualification and licensing criteria for the grade levels and subject area in which the teacher provides instruction
  • Whether your student's teacher is teaching under emergency or other provisional status through which State qualification or licensing criteria has been waived.
  • Whether your student's teacher is teaching in the field of discipline of the certification of the teacher
  • Whether your child is provided services by paraprofessionals and, if so, their qualifications

In addition to the information that parents may request, a building receiving Title I.A funds must provide to each individual parent:

  • Information on the level of achievement and academic growth of your student, if applicable and available, on each of the State academic assessments required under Title I.A
  • Timely notice that your student has been assigned, or has been taught 4 or more consecutive weeks by, a teacher who has not met applicable State certification or licensure requirements at the grade level and subject area in which the teacher has been assigned

West Plains R-VII School District has three Title I.A  funded buildings. They are

  • West Plains Elementary (Schoolwide)
  • South Fork Elementary (Schoolwide)
  • West Plains Middle School (Targeted)
