Teaching Careers students at Four Rivers Career Center began visiting classrooms during the week of September 23-26.

The students toured the Early Learning Center on Monday, September 23, to lean about early childhood education, and will visit elementary classrooms September 25 and October 1. Beginning on October 9, students will be working in classrooms two days per week participating in teaching activities throughout 17 area schools. 

The Teaching Careers program is a one-year program open to seniors in high school. The program is designed to allow students true teaching experiences and opportunities for learning at various levels, while partnering with local schools to complete observation hours and assignments related to the course work.

In addition to the hands-on opportunities, students will also be engaged in academic coursework that is relevant to becoming a teacher.

Students will engage in topics related to child development, teaching and learning, and classroom, instructional strategies.
