Student Teacher Process for Somers Public Schools

This process is to be used for requests for student observations and interns.
  • All requests for potential student teachers, interns and student observers are to be sent to the Director of Curriculum
  • The Director will review the request for placement and match him/her with a TEAM trained teacher in the appropriate discipline and/or grade level.
  • The building administrator is notified of the student teacher placement.
  • The teacher meets with the student to make sure it is a good match.
  • All student teachers and interns are required to have a criminal background check, which includes fingerprinting. This is done once the student has been placed and before they begin student teaching. (Student observers are not required to have a criminal background check if they will not have unsupervised contact with students.)
Somers has accepted student teachers, interns and student observers from the following colleges and universities:
  • Central Connecticut
  • Eastern Connecticut
  • University of Connecticut
  • University of Hartford
  • University of St. Joseph
  • Springfield College
