re: Is it enforced that teachers are required to have licenses

I've got a BA Sociology from LSU. Have about 36 hours of EDU credit from accelerated certification from Nicholls (didn't finish before getting my first job) and passed the Praxis II PE test (which was hard but not as difficult as everyone makes it out to be) the first time.

All I have to do is pass the PLT and I could teach in most public school districts. I work in private school and I love the kids and school, so I don't see the rush to take that test. I'm sure I will eventually... just in case.

They didn't hire me to teach, but rather to coach football. I actually enjoy teaching more now.

My profession is a dying breed. Not many youngsters are getting a college degree to coach high school football. So,there is actually a high demand. I could get a job pretty easy.
