Under what circumstance may the Education Practice Commission permanently revoke an educator's certificate?

Repeated low student evaluations
Failure to complete professional development
Engaging in misconduct
Not meeting court-ordered obligations

The correct answer is: Engaging in misconduct

The Education Practice Commission may permanently revoke an educator's certificate when an educator engages in misconduct. This encompasses a range of serious violations that undermine the ethical and professional standards expected of educators. Misconduct can include actions such as inappropriate relationships with students, substance abuse, fraud, or any behavior that could harm students or jeopardize the integrity of the educational environment. Such actions not only violate laws and regulations but also breach the trust placed in educators by students, parents, and the community. The decision to revoke a certificate permanently signifies the severity of the misconduct and reflects a commitment to maintaining high standards in the education profession. In contrast, factors like repeated low student evaluations, failure to complete professional development, or not meeting court-ordered obligations, while serious, may not automatically warrant permanent revocation and can often be addressed through other disciplinary measures or corrective actions rather than outright revocation.
