Vermont State University’s Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education with Special Education program prepares students to become teachers licensed in both Elementary Education (K-6) and Special Education (K-8). With careful planning, a full-time student can complete the degree in four years, earning recommendation for a Level I Professional Educator’s License issued by the Vermont Agency of Education. This license is required to work as a public‑school teacher in Vermont;
it also is recognized and accepted by all other states who have signed the NASDTEC Interstate Agreement.
Through courses and practicum experiences, students learn the theories, research, standards and practices that provide a solid foundation for educators who are passionate about teaching and committed to creating welcoming learning environments that are inclusive of all learners. Careful attention is given to the growth of children as individuals whose ideas, interests, joys, strengths, and challenges are formed within a community.
The program focuses on action research, collaboration, social justice, inclusivity, diversity, equity, inclusion, democracy, critical perspectives, inquiry, creativity, advocacy, theory into practice, and education as a public good.
