EDAD 5503 District Internship
The District internship experience provides substantial, sustained, standards-based opportunities for leadership candidates to apply leadership competencies in real settings. During the internship, the leadership intern is supported by the college internship supervisor and the cooperating administrator. Bi-monthly seminars provide an opportunity for leadership interns to discuss their experiences, to relate them to best practices and theory, and to offer support and suggestions to one another. Students will complete a minimum of 300 hours in a public or non-public school setting at the level of the school district. Students in full-time employment should be able to complete this requirement in their own districts by arranging a special schedule with their principal and/or superintendent.
