Student Teachers/ Interns
It is the intent of the Peninsula School District to provide the student a rigorous, authentic, and high quality classroom experience. To that end, we require all applicants to be enrolled in a State Board of Education approved college/university education program, with field supervisors provided by the college/university. The college/university must also have a current contract with the Peninsula School District.
Please note: Requests for a placement with a specific teacher or counselor will not be accepted.
