Mission

The School of Education prepares professionals to be leaders in and beyond P-12 classrooms. In our initial programs, future teachers become classroom leaders who are competent, ethical, reflective, and ready to promote learning for a diverse student population. In our advanced programs, teachers, counselors, and principals build on these classroom leadership responsibilities to become advocates, decision-makers, researchers, and partners in school and community settings.
