They live and work among Jamaicans for the duration of the student teaching placement in the mountains surrounding Mandeville in Manchester Parish. Cultural group outings are included. Student teachers are placed to meet their program/licensure requirements with a minimum of two student teachers per school. Students in early childhood education, middle childhood/early adolescence (elementary) education, secondary education, physical education, and special education may participate in this program.</p> Arrow
