The program lets new teachers hit the ground running by tailoring general education classes to equip them to teach a variety of subjects.
Once the program is completed, graduates receive a paid internship in a Pinellas County Schools classroom. Once the internship completed, a graduate of the program receives a teaching job with Pinellas County Schools.
