The Lincoln Board of Education recognizes that there is personal enrichment, self-development and an increased workload for the cooperating teachers as they guide the professional growth of practicum students and student teachers. Each semester, certificated employees will be surveyed to determine their interest in accepting practicum student or student teacher placements. Certificated employees who consent to the assignment of a practicum student or student teacher agree to accept the accompanying responsibilities. Assignment of practicum students and student teachers will be facilitated by the Human Resources Division.
No institution will be allowed to place practicum students or student teachers without prior approval from Human Resources.
