A Resident Teacher is a credential student who has been accepted into a Resident Teacher program with one of our partner districts. Resident Teachers are required to complete all the coursework for the Teacher preparation program at Saint Mary’s College. They will complete their field placement at their partner district. Resident Teachers earn a grant funded living stipend through the district. 

On Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, Resident Teachers will be placed in a classroom with a mentor teacher. Mondays and Fridays will be open for work as paid subs.

The stipend can be put towards living expenses during your time in the program. 

Details for the program are still being finalized. Check back later for more info.

The deadline for the teacher residency programs is April 25, 2024. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis, and teacher residency positions are expected to be in high demand. Interested candidates are encouraged to apply early. 

Resident teachers benefit from placement with a mentor teacher while still having the opportunity to earn income as a substitute and receive a living stipend.

Orientation and Classes for Summer 2025 begin May 27, 2025. 

Classes are held on campus at Saint Mary's College. 

All credential classes for the resident teacher program will be held in-person. BILA classes are held online.
