Resources for School Partners

School partners play a key role in preparing future educators. All future educators seeking professional licensure complete extensive clinical experiences in school settings, ensuring that they are prepared for their careers. This page contains resources for our school partners, including restricted access to partnership documents, information regarding partnering with UT to prepare future educators and information for mentor teachers.
