What is the Middle Childhood Generalist Endorsement?

The Middle Childhood Education (MCE) license covers two content areas (from language arts, mathematics, science, and social studies) in grades 4-9. The Generalist Endorsement is an optional add-on that allows a teacher to teach grades 4-5-6 in one or two additional content areas not on the original teaching license.

For example, a teacher licensed in MCE language arts and social studies may add on the Generalist Endorsement for 1) mathematics, 2) science, or 3) both mathematics and science.
