CU School of Ed receives 'A' rating from NCTQ By Gerard Flanagan, news writer and photographer, Office of University Communications Campbellsville University's School of Education has received an "A" grade for its Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education (P-5) program from the National Council on Teacher Quality (NCTQ). NCTQ awarded the Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education (P-5) program an "A" rating for its ability to prepare graduates to effectively teach students to read. "At Campbellsville University, we equip our teacher candidates with research-based best practices in teaching reading and literacy to ensure that their future students will develop the greatest capacity for utilizing reading to learn, reading to earn, and reading to enjoy," Dr. Lisa Allen, dean of the School of Education at Campbellsville University, said. NCTQ, a non-profit, non-partisan think tank based in Washington D.C., was founded in 2000 and specializes in providing research, evaluation information and guidance on the topics of teacher preparation, teacher pay, educator equity, and diversity. "In addition to teaching, our reading and literacy faculty conduct research and write and present about different aspects of reading and literacy instruction," Allen said. "We are pleased with this recognition from NCTQ, which confirms that our candidates receive a high-quality preparation program that will prepare them for the demands of teaching reading and literacy to diverse learners in elementary classrooms in Kentucky and across the United States." The Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education (P-5) from Campbellsville University seeks to provide students with the knowledge, skills and experience necessary to become a certified elementary school teacher. The program combines coursework with clinical experiences in elementary classrooms giving candidates time to put their course knowledge into practice. The program is offered in either a face-to-face or an online format. The curriculum includes preparation in classroom management, learning theory, instructional technology and strategies for working with diverse learners. At the end of the program, candidates complete 16 weeks of student teaching in elementary classrooms. Campbellsville University provides placement assistance to identify student teaching opportunities in their community. Dr. Donna Hedgepath, provost and vice president for academic affairs, said, "CU's School of Education continues to provide cutting-edge, rigorous instruction for educators and administrators, especially in the areas of reading pedagogy and literacy. "We are poised to prepare the next generation of educators to continue the work of serving both public and private education, in order to see our children be successful." Campbellsville University also offers a dual certification option in special education and elementary education. The School of Education at Campbellsville University is accredited by the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP). Campbellsville University is a widely acclaimed Kentucky-based Christian university that offers over 100 programs including doctoral, master, bachelor, associate and certificate programs.
