At Champlain, you'll start working with students during your first semester and Champlain has a proven track record as an ideal training ground for today's teacher. We want to cultivate those special teachers of tomorrow who will make a difference in their students' lives. Students interested in certification for high school English teaching will focus on literature, writing and drama courses. Those pursuing certification for high school social studies will take history and contemporary world issues courses.
Licensure at the high school level (grades 7-12) requires you to major (30 credit hour minimum) in the content area you wish to teach. Champlain's English and Social Science departments have an extensive list of course offerings to create strong majors in English and History/Social Studies. There are two content area options available: an English major with a History minor (18 credits) or a History major and an English minor.
At the successful completion of the high school degree program, you will be prepared to teach in two content areas. This dual endorsement will provide you with a strong humanities background and a competitive edge in the market place.
Program Highlights
Hands-on learning -- Participate in student teaching during seven of your eight semesters. In fact, you'll be out working with students your very first semester.
