| Few places in Texas can match our picturesque
university campus and recently, Nacogdoches county
earned recognition on the top "100
Best"
communities list. There are even plans to bring an aquatics
waterworks complex and beach to Nacogdoches. Stephen
F. Austin State University (SFA)
is one of about
a dozen universities in Texas that is both state
and nationally
certified. In fact, our College of Education is a training site for
the national organization that accredits universities across the
nation. Our Reading Specialist program is Nationally
Recognized (out of only a handfull in Texas). The government lists SFA
accreditations here www.ope.ed.gov/accreditation.
How are SFA
students doing? Look to the right to see them in action with
classroom students. Check out our lab
school on campus and our brand
new research facility to watch exemplary teaching and learn
hands-on how to become a "highly
qualified" teacher. Read our Annual
Reports
to see how
well SFA grads do on state teacher exams. Read about our
achievement of a 100%
passrate on state teacher exams. We even have an award-winning
online program that includes a national Head Start
Teacher Education Program. Why is all of this
important
to you? It means other states will recognize your SFA teaching
certificate (reciprocity)
once you graduate and begin looking for a job. If students struggle, no
problem--visit the Broken Spoon,
our nationally
recognized student support facility where students can tuor or be
tutored. No wonder SFA was
rated by Kapplan as a "hidden
treasure." We're here to teach because you're here to learn! Come
see for yourself. |
