Careers in Education (Dual Credit)

Are you thinking of a career related to children in any way, perhaps teaching? If so this course is for you. Students in this program will spend two-thirds of their time at an elementary or junior high school within the Tahoma School District working as a high school intern. The interns will assist in activity planning, work with small group instruction, observe, and perform other teacher-related duties. The remaining one-third of the class time will be spent in a seminar that will teach child development theory, classroom management, lesson planning, and public school law. This is a one-semester course which can be followed by Careers in Education II.
