Teachers always need help in the classroom during the school year. Student teachers are there to help, but also learn to teach students.  Also, the student teachers need these teaching hours, so they can graduate from the educational program.  Students appreciated all that the student teachers did for them.  ” It is always nice to be able to mentor a beginning teach and see them improve as the semester goes on,” newspaper and English teacher Wanda Pletcher said.

“I think it was a learning experience that can not be explained until I participated in.  It helped me realize what I love about teaching, and why I want to pursue this career,” student teacher Ari Simner said.  Many teachers felt the connection between them and their student teacher.  It was a worth wild experience for everyone that had a student teacher.

These student teachers come to this school to have a teaching career that they will never forget.  These are pictures of these student teachers in action.
