The experiences and responsibilities vary by program. In most cases, students follow New York State requirements for student teaching which involves student teaching experiences in two different settings. Again, the placements vary by the students' academic area and status. The Student Teaching Office coordinates more than 750 placements every year, matching up close to 400 Nazareth College students.
Placements are in various settings in urban, rural and suburban environments.
Students are also placed in private schools and agencies depending on need and appropriateness. The Student Teaching Office coordinates placement matches and students participate in the experience under the supervision of a College Supervisor. The following list contains general information regarding student teaching. Placement information is subject to change. Jill Zulauf, M.S.Ed.
