Extractions: The Teacher Education Program is comprised of a set of prescribed field experiences, entry and retention requirements, courses, and regulations designed to prepare students for state certification and successful careers as teachers. The program includes preparation for students who wish to be elementary teachers as well as those who desire to teach a subject area at the secondary level. The program maintains the Teacher Education Center, a resource laboratory for students majoring in a teacher education area. Stillman College complies with requirements and rules issued by the Alabama State Department of Education for teacher certification. Published admission and curriculum requirements will be modified when necessary to reflect changes in state requirements. Retention in Teacher Education Once admitted to Teacher Education, students are required to meet program stipulations. Failure to maintain a minimum of 2.5 grade point average, on a 4.0 scale overall, in Professional Studies education courses and in the teaching field(s) places the student on probation and jeopardizes continuance in the Teacher Education Program. No grade lower that a "C" in any EDU, EED, or SED-prefix course is permitted; in case of a lower grade, the course must be repeated. In the opinion of the Screening and Admissions Committee, any student who fails to acquire the characteristics of a professional educator, develops academic problems or is deemed unsuitable for the profession may, after appropriate review, be dropped from the program.
