How would teachers who solely teach a specific subject, such as reading, music or math, at the elementary level, demonstrate subject matter competency?
Elementary teachers who teach a particular subject or subjects of the elementary curriculum need only to demonstrate subject matter competency in those subjects, and not in all of the subjects of the elementary curriculum, through the appropriate subject matter Massachusetts Tests for Educator Licensure (MTEL), or, if licensed in or prior to 1999, HOUSSE.
