  C. Conditional Certification
   
For a school to sponsor a staff member for conditional certification the school board must vote to authorize the registration for conditional certification.

PCM has 3 staff members (1 instructional assistant and 2 guides) that the PCM admin team are recommending PCM sponsor for Conditional Certification. This sponsorship is needed while they are enrolled and progressing through their required coursework with an accredited educational institution to attain their WA State teaching certification. The Guides possess Montessori certification and experience applicable to the age groupings they serve.

Proposed motion: to grant the PCM administrative team the ability to complete the registration process that will position PCM as the Conditional Certification sponsor for three staff members.
