District Partners
OSCP places students for field experiences with various district and charter school partners. Their willingness to collaborate with the Cato College of Education in implementing research-based pedagogy, formative evaluation of the teaching process, and continuous communication in support of the teaching candidate, their clinical instructor, and university site coordinator reflects a dedication to the optimization of student learning in the region. The Office of Schools and Community Partnerships firmly believes that these synergistic activities reflect the vision of the Cato College of Education to, “…prepare teachers, counselors, and school leaders who will provide all youth with access to the highest quality education possible and to meet the needs of all students, regardless of their backgrounds.”
