Application and Placement Process

Steps for Placement:

1. You need to have met all requirements within your university for placement.
2. Submit a student teaching application to the college or university (follow the college/university process).
3. The College or University will submit a request with required documentation to the Human Resources Department. A complete application includes:
   • Student teaching application from your college or university (if applicable)
   • Resume
   • Transcripts (unofficial copies accepted. All documents should be emailed to be considered.)
4. Human Resources then attempts to make the requested placement(s).
5. The Principal, and potential cooperating teacher, may call and request an interview or more information from the student teacher prior to accepting placement.
6. Human Resources will contact the college or university to notify them whether the student teacher placement has been made.
7. Once the student teacher has been placed, they will need to submit an application for guest teacher/substitute through the Frontline Application Portal prior to the start of their student teaching/internship.
8. The student teacher will need to apply for a one-year substitute authorization through the Colorado Department of Education.
9. Human Resources will reach out to the placed student teacher / intern, as needed.

Every effort will be made to place student teachers / interns at their requested location or with the requested mentor teacher / supervisor who will provide proper guidance and supervision. However, if the request cannot be met, Human Resources will work with your university on available placements in the District.
