Become a Teacher!
Make a difference! Earn your credential and master's degree in 1 year.
As you may know there is a severe teacher shortage in California! San Lorenzo Unified is addressing this shortage and our children’s needs by recruiting and training diverse and local teacher candidates who are committed to making a difference in our community. To accomplish this, we partner with Alder Graduate School of Education which offers rigorous, equity-focused online coursework enabling participants to earn a teaching credential and a master's degree in only one year. These teachers in training or "residents" are carefully matched with SLZUSD mentor teachers and co-teach with them for a full year, gradually assuming increasing responsibility for instruction in their classroom.
We pay residents a $45,750 stipend to help defray cost of living. Teachers of special education, math, science are especially needed, as well as Spanish bilingual elementary teachers. For more information, contact the program coordinator, Stacy Kaplan: [email protected] |
