This agreement is between Clay County District Schools and Liberty University for LU students to participate in clinical/occupational experiences under the direction of a qualified supervisor in Clay County schools.

Without this agreement, counseling interns cannot be placed in Clay County District Schools and would thereby prevent potential counselor candidates from choosing Clay to begin their career.

Clay County District Schools currently has agreements with 26 Colleges/Universities, and has an agreement with LU for interns to be placed in Clay that expires in 8/2023.  This agreement would allow counseling students to be placed in Clay. 

Placement of counselor candidates  provides real-world experiences to better prepare them for the rigors of counseling in the Prek-12 educational setting.  LU is currently requesting the placement of 1 student, and this agreement will allow for future counseling interns to be placed over the duration of the contract period.
