Mississippi just made it easier to become a teacher: Here’s what’s changing
Mississippi is simplifying teacher certification to combat shortages. New pathways allow aspiring elementary teachers to earn a provisional license while completing a free, year-long reading course. Special education teachers for mild to moderate needs will no longer require a reading test. These changes aim to strengthen the educator workforce and boost retention.
