It enhances the educational process by funding staff and additional resources. Funding is based upon the percentage of low-income enrollment based on free and reduced lunch.

  5. Notification of Right to Request Teacher Qualifications Dear Parent or Guardian: The educators in Pike County Schools are committed to providing a quality instructional program for your child. This letter is just one of the ways of keeping you informed of the educational commitment of our schools and our district. Our district receives federal funds for Title I programs as a part of the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB). Under NCLB, you have the right to request information regarding the professional qualifications of your child’s teacher(s). If you request this information, the district will provide you with the following: Whether the teacher has met the state requirements for licensure and certification for the grade levels and subject matters in which the teacher provides instruction; 2. Whether the teacher is teaching under emergency or other provisional status through which state qualification or licensing criteria have been waived; 3. The college major and any other graduate certification or degree held by the teacher, and the field of discipline of the certification or degree; and 4. Whether your child is provided services by paraeducators, and if so, their qualifications. If you would like to request this information, please contact Robert J. Osborne by telephone at 606 433-9217 or by email at robert.osborne@pike.kyschools.us.
