The American Board, a non-profit dedicated to recruiting and certifying community-based teachers in Missouri, will host a public event on how local residents can become certified Missouri teachers.

Attendees will learn what to expect in a career as a teacher and receive advisement on a personalized path to certification.

The event will be held on Tuesday, June 19, at 6:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m., at the Franklin P. Norman City/County Community Center, 200 N. Ash, Nevada. Presentations will be led by Missouri Teacher Certification Specialist Rachel Pryor.

"Anyone with a bachelor's degree can become a full-time teacher within a year as long as they plan the right path." Pryor said. "We are searching for people who have real-life experience and want to apply that experience in the classroom."

Pryor can be contacted at rpryor@americanboard.org or (573) 200-6368. Visit www.abcte.org for more information on becoming a teacher.
