OVERVIEW

FOREWORD

No Child Left Behind legislation requires having a highly qualified teacher in every classroom to ensure that all students achieve academic proficiency by 2013-2014. Meeting the highly qualified teacher challenge is one that necessitates pertinent training at both the preservice and inservice levels for West Virginia’s classroom teachers. The nineteen institutions with West Virginia approved professional preparation programs are charged to provide the training necessary for their graduates to meet the growing needs of students in West Virginia’s classrooms.

The Quality of Teacher Preparation in West Virginia examines the quality of teacher preparation in the eighteen institutions of higher education that have West Virginia approved professional preparation programs. The publication contains information regarding the demographics of program completers, the requirements of field experiences and student teaching, as well as the performance of program completers on the state and institutional assessments. For this publication, a program completer is defined as an individual who has completed an approved professional preparation program in West Virginia and qualifies for a Provisional Professional Teaching Certificate in West Virginia. The information provided pertains to the 1,165 individuals who qualify as 1,552 program completers for school year September 1, 2007 through August 31, 2008.

You are encouraged to use The Quality of Teacher Preparation in West Virginia to assist you in the development of educational policies and programs. Inquiries regarding this publication should be directed to Nathan Estel, Executive Director or Kellie Crawford, Coordinator, Office of Professional Preparation.

Steve Paine State Superintendent of Schools
