Professionalism
 

In your application you will be asked to submit a resume and cover letter. Before submitting your resume and cover letter in Google Forms we suggest proof reading your applications materials thoroughly. These documents provide a first impression of your professionalism and potential. Some applicants have been rejected due to grammar and spelling errors in the past. It is also strongly encouraged that you visit Career Services in 145 Marano Campus Center to review both your cover letter and resume.

Please be mindful of all your social media accounts. Be certain that if a prospective cooperating teacher is searching you, they only find evidence of your professionalism.
