The state-recognized high school curriculum has been lauded as a successful \u201cgrow your own\u201d teacher program. UMW holds a similar partnership with Spotsylvania County Public Schools, said UMW College of Education (COE) Dean Pete Kelly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs a COE at a public university, we have a responsibility to help address the chronic teacher shortage in our area schools and in Virginia,\u201d Kelly said. \u201cWe worked together to align coursework and curriculum to ensure students have the learning experiences they need to be successful in the COE at UMW, and in their work as teachers after graduation. We also worked to make sure students get credit for the courses they take.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Virtual meetings this past spring brought administrators and teachers from TfT programs in eight school divisions together with UMW and Germanna faculty. The group focused on curriculum collaborations and preliminary planning for a summer institute for TfT teachers and high school students to be held in 2021.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn spite of upheaval throughout all education across the country, Stafford County Public Schools, the University of Mary Washington and Germanna continue as strong partners to benefit the teaching profession and our communities,\u201d Gullickson said. \u201cThe strength of this partnership will weather the challenges of our times.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_85350\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-85350\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"85350\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/2020\/07\/29\/umw-partnership-with-germanna-stafford-schools-paves-way-for-educators\/48_seacobeck-hall\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2015\/01\/48_seacobeck-hall.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"710,422\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;Norm Shafer@2013&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"48_seacobeck-hall\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Seacobeck Hall, UMW&amp;#8217;s longtime dining facility, is future home to the College of Education.
