"In The News" So You Want to Become a Teacher The credential required to teach any grade from Pre-K through grade 12 in a Texas public school is a teaching certificate. The certificate identifies both the grade range and (at the middle school and high school levels) the subject/content area the teacher is certified to teach. There are three grade ranges: Early Childhood - Grade 4 (elementary school), Grade 4 - Grade 8 (with grades 4 and 5 typically housed in elementary schools and grades 6 - 8 housed in middle or junior-high schools) and Grade 8 - Grade 12 (housed in both middle/junior-high schools and high schools). This classification of the grade ranges is fairly recent; although the grade alignments may be different from those with which you’re familiar, they are the official certificate ranges specified by the State Board for Educator Certification in Texas (SBEC).
