Teacher In Residence


Introduction:

The Post-Bacc Teacher in Residence Program is designed to help school districts meet the highly qualified portion of the No Child Left Behind requirement by utilizing the Intern Certificate. The program approved by the Arizona Department of Education allows students who currently posses a bachelor's degree in a non-related education area to receive employment in a classroom while simultaneously completing their education coursework for certification. A student may not begin working in the program unless they are recommended by a school district for full-time employment and they have successfully passed the Arizona Education Proficiency Assessment in the content area for which they are being employed.

Teacher In Residence program requirements:

  • Must complete 50% of required program plan coursework by the end of the first year
  • Be successful in a year long supervised student teaching in order to maintain employment
  • Renew Intern Certificate to continue the 2nd year of the Teacher In Residence Program
  • All Rio Salado EDU courses must be met with a (B) or better with an overall GPA of 3.0
