Elementary School

  1. Regular Education Grades 1-8 or Elementary/Middle Education
  2. Bilingual/Bi-Cultural
Bilingual Education is a shortage area for MMSD. We may consider candidates who hold the minimum of a Bachelor's degree, if the candidate is willing to pursue the full certification and license required for the position. The district does not provide financial support for the continued education that is required to achieve the certification. The district does not select or endorse any particular certification program that leads to the required Wisconsin teaching license. A candidate must be hired by a school district in order to apply for a One-Year License with Stipulations with DPI.

MMSD must first consider applicants who are fully licensed to teach bilingual education before considering applicants who are not yet licensed.
