Teacher Education

"I had friends at bigger colleges that told me "I'm just a number", It's not like that here. It's a family and a community, it wasn't just going to school."

Accreditation

The Elementary Education and Middle Education degree programs are fully accredited by the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP).
