Fifteen teachers in the Lake Washington School District achieved national board certification. These teachers were honored by the district's board of directors at its March 5 meeting. There are now 46 national board certified teachers working full-time in 27 of the district's 48 schools.
Teachers earn this prestigious credential through a rigorous assessment that generally takes a year or more to complete. It requires these teachers to demonstrate how their work improves student achievement. It is considered the highest professional certification a teacher can obtain.
