Licensure

The Regional Office of Education #47 helps serve teachers, support staff, administrators and substitute teachers in Lee, Ogle, and Whiteside Counties with all of their licensure needs. Please contact Mary Escamilla for assistance with license applications, renewals, registrations, or adding endorsements to a license. She is available to assist you with your Educator License Information System (ELIS) account and she will work in conjunction with the Illinois State Board of Education to answer your questions regarding the licensure process.
