Becoming a secondary school teacher in Tennessee?

I taught 9th grade science for 3 years in another state. I had the temporary three year licesnse because I do not have an education degree. I was in the alternative certification program until I realized it would not be accepted anywhere except the county I was in. The temporary liscense expired so I moved on.

Now I am in Tennessee and wish to teach again.

What do I do?

I would strongly encourage you to get the degree. Continue to find out from your local board of education what their requirements are, and the state’s minimum requirements to teach, but do yourself and the students a favor by finishing a degree.
