Rutherford County Schools

 

The Tennessee Department of Education recently approved Rutherford County Schools as an Educator Preparation Provider.

 

The district can now provide our occupational teachers with the educational coursework and one-on-one support that is vital to the success of new teachers transitioning from the workplace to education. This program provides another pathway option to help teachers meet the state requirements for licensure advancement, while receiving ongoing support and resources at a significantly reduced out-of-pocket cost.

 

A full story will follow next week.
