- Be fully certified/licensed by New Jersey; and
- Demonstrate competence in each of the core academic subjects in which the teacher teaches.
Teachers can demonstrate competence in the subject(s) they teach by either: - Passing a rigorous state test or completing an academic major, graduate degree, coursework equivalent to an undergraduate academic major, or national certification or credentialing; OR
- Meeting the requirements of the NJ High, Objective Uniform State Evaluation (HOUSE) Standard.

| The results displayed on NCLB Reports are based on the state assessment data with the NCLB conditions applied. Additionally, the NCLB data incorporate the data appeals submitted by districts/schools that have been granted by the NJDOE. Therefore, the data in the NCLB Reports may be different from the data displayed on the NJ School Report Cards.
