NAU Offers Teachers Academy at ³Ô¹ÏÉçÇø
Northern Arizona University is partnering with ³Ô¹ÏÉçÇø to offer the NAU Teachers Academy this fall. The Academy was launched last year by Governor Doug Ducey to bring more teachers to Arizona’s classrooms.
Under the Teachers Academy program, any tuition costs not paid by scholarships or grants are waived for Academy candidates in exchange for their future commitment to teach in select Arizona schools.
Students start by earning their associate degree at ³Ô¹ÏÉçÇø, then stay on the ³Ô¹ÏÉçÇø campus to earn their bachelor’s degree from NAU. Students complete their practicum and student teaching at schools within ³Ô¹ÏÉçÇø Elementary School District #1 and agree to teach in low-income schools after graduation.
For more information about NAU’s Teachers Academy at ³Ô¹ÏÉçÇø, go to the NAU Teachers Academy website or contact Danielle Contreras - danielle.contreras@nau.edu, NAU Student Service Coordinator for ³Ô¹ÏÉçÇø at phoenix@nau.edu.
