School-based Experience
No better way to learn and grow
Remember that teacher you simply loved when you were in school, who inspired you to go into teaching? Getting into local classrooms to collaborate with beloved teachers like those will give your teaching education a boost like nothing else.

Cooperating partners
Our excellent teacher prep program wouldn’t be the same without our fantastic partners in area school districts. They host our student teachers and provide crucial experiences to shape their growth.
