(1)

No persons shall serve as a teacher (as defined in ORS 342.120 (Definitions for chapter)) in a public charter school unless such person either holds a valid Oregon license issued by TSPC pursuant to 338.135 (Employees) or is registered with TSPC as a charter school teacher in accordance with 342.125 (Types of licenses)(5).

Description of the specific teaching position the applicant will fill with the employing charter school plus an indication of the exact subjects the educator will be teaching;
