Felon wants job as a Teacher
 |
Hello,
I was wondering if you know whether or not a
felon can become a high school teacher in Illinois or Oregon? My husband
was convicted of residential burglary when he was 17 (as an adult) but
has not been in any trouble since. He is now 31.
Felon wants job as a Teacher
Too many ex-offenders and felons looking for jobs make the assumption that they cannot get jobs because of their records. I suggest that he contact the local school board to find out for sure if his conviction would keep him from being certified and hired as a teacher. If it indeed does, there are other options for and felons wanting careers as teachers.Community colleges, adult learning annexes, charter schools and private schools are great places to start. They usually have fewer regulatory restrictions than public school systems. There is also a growing trend toward career schools that are always looking for trained instructors. Don't assume that because you have a criminal record, you cannot become a teacher.
I hope this helps.
