Why PRAXIS?
Description:
PRAXIS offers you the opportunity of a partnership between Northern Arizona University and the Flagstaff Unified School District along with charter and private schools. This opportunity benefits classroom teachers, students, and you. As a pre-service teacher taking a dual-major in special and elementary education you will earn Certification in Cross Categorical Disabilities( High Incidence) and/or Low Incidence Disabilities.
As a candidate you will work in various levels of inclusive classroom placements during the three-semester program.
After the third semester, candidates may choose to complete their student teaching in one of a variety of schools, depending on availability.
PRAXIS means "theory to practice." To apply this philosophy, our instructors place students in actual classrooms, where they teach under the guidance of professional educators. The curriculum covers all required course work leading toward the Arizona state credential certification for elementary (grades K-8) and special education (grades K-21 years). This includes low and high incidence disabilities.
