2) whether the teacher is teaching under emergency or other provisional status through which the State qualification or licensing criteria have been waived.
3) the baccalaureate degree major of the teacher and any other graduate ertification or degree held by the teacher, and the field of discipline of the certification or degree.
4) whether the child is provided services by paraprofessionals and, if so, their qualifications.
5) information on the level of achievement of the parent's child in each of the State's required academic assessments.
6) timely notice that the parent's child has been assigned, or has been taught for four or more consecutive weeks by a teacher who is not highly qualified.
