How can I renew teaching certification if I stay at home with kids for 2 years?
Tracy C asked:
I am a certified teacher in Texas. I will be staying home with my kids for 1-2 years and want to know how I can keep up with my teaching certification? I know you have to have a certain amount of staff development hours and I am not sure how to do it if I won’t be working. I want to go back to teaching in a couple years.

I’m not sure about Texas, but here in Illinois your certification during the time you were gone would simply be considered inactive. You would simply activate your certificate once you return back to work. If you want it to remain active, just complete any continuing education requirements and pay your annual fee to keep your certificate updated. I’d definitely contact your state board and inquire about precise certification procedures… every state seems to be a little different.
