Greetings from the School of Education at High Point University

Thank you for your interest in teacher education at High Point University.  In keeping with North Carolina's mission to produce competitive 21st century students in grades K-12,  the School of Education is pleased to announce new programs of study in teacher education, effective fall 2010.  Current and prospective students are encouraged to visit the links provided on this website to learn more about changes in both our undergraduate and graduate programs as well as new opportunities for advanced programs of study. With input from faculty, students, and public school professionals, new courses have been carefully developed to reflect the latest research on best practices in teaching and include a strong emphasis in literacy instruction, technology integration, collaboration, and interdisciplinary curriculum.  All of our programs of study are designed with the goal of producing knowledgeable and skilled  classroom teachers who are successful leaders both in and out of the classroom.   

All of our teacher education programs at High Point University are approved by the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction (DPI) and the National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE).  We are fortunate to be surrounded by so many excellent school districts with whom the School of Education enjoys many collaborative projects.  Our partners in public education work alongside our faculty to teach many of our courses, provide internship settings for students to gain teaching and administrative experience.

 

Please browse the links above for more information on our undergraduate, graduate and evening degree programs for prospective teachers and school administrators.  Feel free to schedule an appointment to discuss your options today!
