A Federally Funded Alternative Teacher Preparation Program
MSMaRT is a partially-funded 31 credit-hour* post-baccalaureate teacher certification program designed to help you become fully credentialed and employed in a reduced period of time. It includes:
- an 11-week pre-employment program designed to help you acquire a beginning repertoire of pedagogical skills;
- ongoing university coursework that exposes you to critical content including national and local curriculum standards, learning theory, and inquiry;
- employment as a highly-qualified and certified math or science middle school teacher in PGCPS – ½ time during the first year and full-time thereafter; &
- an induction and mentoring component that supports you transition into your new profession.
During your first year in the MSMaRT residency in PGCPS you will teach half-time which provides you the time needed for collaboration, reflection, and completion of ongoing university coursework, as well as earning a half-time teacher salary.
