Re: Social Science Endorsement
by Sped
Apr 14, 2011
I was referring to middle school endorsement. The section >you sent me to is just for high school, correct?

Yep.

>When looking back >at my transcripts, it seems like I have 18 credit hours in >the social science realm.

In that case, 18-credit hours in any of the 6-designations will work. History, Psych, Soc/Anthro, Poly Sci, Geography, and/or Econ. You will also need the two middle school classes ISBE requires for any middle school endorsement.
