IN THIS SECTION, INSERT THE CALENDAR PROVIDED TO YOU BY MS. WHITE
Student Teachers will stay in their Student Teaching assignments until the end date provided by WKU, even if they have met their 70 days of instruction. The 70-day requirement is a minimum number of days, per regulation. It is to the benefit of the Student Teacher to have as many days as possible in front of students.
Student Teachers are allowed to use 3 excused absences. However, any additional days missed will need to be made up. This includes taking off to take a Praxis exam or interviews.
If the Student Teacher has two 8-week placements, then these make-up days are usually made up at the end of the second 8-week placement.
