URBAN CHARTER SCHOOL MAT PROGRAM

Earn a Master of Arts in Teaching from Simmons College

All Fellow positions have been filled for the 08-09 school year.

Simmons College and City on a Hill Charter School invite all middle and high school charter school teachers to join a cohort of their peers to earn a master’s degree with state licensure. In the two-year program, a cohort of full-time charter school teachers study pedagogy relevent to urban middle and high schools. Teachers will reflect on their classrooms and methodology within a supportive educational structure in graduate level coursework. Taught by Simmons professors, this innovative, rigorous 36-credit program will lead to a Master of Arts in Teaching degree with eligibility for Massachusetts Licensure. Thanks to the Simmons Public Charter School Scholarship, this program is offered at a significantly reduced tuition.
