Title
C7A - Affiliation Agreement between Clay County District Schools and Indian River State College
Description

This agreement is between Clay County District Schools and Indian River State College (IRSC) for IRSC students to participate in internships, practicums, and observations under the direction of a certified educator in Clay County schools.

Gap Analysis

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

Previous Outcomes

Clay County District Schools currently has agreements with 26 Colleges/Universities, and this will be the first time an agreement has been made with Indian River State College.

Expected Outcomes

Placement of interns provides teacher candidates with real-world experiences that better prepares them for the rigors of classroom teaching.  Indian River State College is currently requesting the placement of one student.

Strategic Plan Goal

Goal 5: Develop and support great educators, support personnel, and leaders. 

Strategy: 5.1: Recruit, screen, hire, and retain top candidates that reflect the diversity of each school, our district, and community.

Recommendation

That the Clay County School Board approve the agreement between Clay County District Schools and Indian River State College.
