(The numbers in these tables exceed the number of teachers who reported teaching these subjects because some teachers taught more than one subject.) Across all science subject areas for special education teachers, the one teacher who taught chemistry was licensed in that subject. One of the three special education teachers teaching physics was licensed and one of the five teachers teaching general science was licensed. Among the seven ELL teachers, in both the general science and chemistry subjects, one of two teachers held a license and had a degree. Both teachers teaching physics and earth science had a degree in the subject as well.
