  • Candidates must have either (a) a valid Tennessee teaching license with the appropriate content endorsement to teach or (b) a valid out-of-state license that can be successfully transferred to Tennessee within 90 days of employment, or (c) demonstrate they are on track to complete the necessary steps towards certification in Tennessee.
  • A belief in the IOTA mission and the ability to meet deadlines related to lesson plan submission, grades, and other requirements.
  • Humility, sense of humor, and a rock-solid commitment to IOTA's mission and the communities we serve.
