Project Proficient at Morningside College is pleased to announce the opening of applications for the second cohort. The online application process can be accessed at http://grad.morningside.edu/ProjectProficient.php
The first course in the online ESL endorsement series (6 courses in 2 1/2 years) will begin in September of 2014. Please spread the word to all applicants you feel would benefit from receiving tuition and textbooks for all 6 courses in the series. Successful applicants need to make a commitment to work in professional learning communities, to complete the series of courses in the endorsement, and to pay for adding the ESL endorsement to the teaching license. Previous applicants will need to reapply.
Applicants need to complete the online Project Proficient Application as well as the Project Proficient Writing Prompts and send unofficial transcripts to Beth Bubb, Administrative Assistant for Project Proficient, 1501 Morningside Avenue, Sioux City, Iowa, 51106. Upon acceptance to Project Proficient, applicants will need to have official transcripts sent, and apply for admission to Morningside College’s Graduate Program, (which includes a $25 fee) unless they have been previously accepted into the Graduate Program. Decisions on acceptance will be made during the spring semester.
Applicants are selected according to the following criteria: 1) Teaching in a high need district or building; 2) Commitment to work in a professional learning community setting to complete the entire endorsement in 2 ½ years; 3) Serving in AEA grant partner schools; 4) Having a minimum of a bachelor’s degree with a minimum cumulative grade point average of 3.0; 5) Teaching in a classroom and holding a valid Iowa teaching license. According to the federal Title III requirements for counting program participants, applicants must be employed in a K-12 teaching position.
