We welcome questions about the program at any time.
Applications for the 2026-27 cycle will be available in January and are due March 15.
We are a cohort-based secondary teacher licensure program within a small liberal arts college devoted to cultivating thoughtful, compassionate, and equity-driven teachers. Our program is shaped by the following guiding values.
We are community-minded - building intentional relationships within the cohort, the classroom, as well as the families and communities they serve.
We are inquiry-based - fostering the development of teachers who are curious about their craft and understand the art of reflective practice.
We are equity-driven - believing that all children and youth should experience joy as learners and that educators must confront systems of oppression to enact a commitment to culturally responsive-sustaining teaching.
We have unique positionality - shaped by the liberal arts environment and accessible to a diverse array of urban and suburban school partners in the Greater Boston area.
