What type of degree is required to teach elementary school in texas?

Question:I want to teach elementary school in Texas. After an injury that has restricted my physical abilities in the blue collar workplace, Ive decided to become a teacher. I need info on what type of degree I need to teach Elementary school in Texas.

Answers:
you need a bachelors in anything from an accredited university. then you can get certified in any acp program, some are even online or through videos.
You don't say how you are physically restricted. Teaching can be a very physically demanding job. You might want to try to work as a teacher aide/assistant for a year to see if you are able to function in a classroom with your restricted physical abilities.

If you do not already have a degree, you will need minimally a Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood Education.

If you already have a degree in another field, you need to contact the Texas Department of Education or the local school district to find the requirements for getting an alternative certification.
I teach elementary school in Texas with a Bachelor's of Science in Reading and a Master's of Education. If you currently have a degree, you might be eligible to take a different route depending on your qualifications and the district in which you want to work - Alternative certification.
