Ed Prep students are placed with excellent mentor teachers across our district during their clinicals. Students are receiving excellent training, and many of them are already leading small groups, assisting with centers, tutoring, and reading to students. We even have a couple of future band directors that are sharing their talents with middle school band students. We are so proud of our Ed Prep students!
