Southeastern Louisiana University's Project ReNew is offering Livingston teachers an opportunity to receive free special education certification. Project ReNew is a federal grant designed to increase the quantity and quality of certified special education teachers for students with mild to moderate disabilities. Along with free tuition, teachers will receive a 250 dollar stipend per semester and fast track certification in special education in four semesters. Participating schools will receive educational resources, in conjunction with a partnership among collaborating universities and regional parish schools. Participants must be certified teachers in general education employed by the Livingston Parish School Board and willing to take six hours each semester on the Southeastern campus.
Space is limited.
