A partnership between Memminger Elementary School, Charleston
County School District and the School of Education, College of
Charleston
The purpose of this partnership is to maximize our resources
and work together to improve results for Memminger Elementary
students and novice teachers enrolled in College of Charleston
teacher education programs. It is hoped that this partnership
will result in ongoing quality field and clinical practice placements
for teacher education candidates, ongoing professional development
for Memminger Elementary teachers who desire to become Partnership
Faculty in College of Charleston's teacher education program,
and ongoing scholarly and professional development opportunities
for College of Charleston faculty.
It is believed that all engaged in work at the school site must
be committed to ensuring that each and every child learns and
develops to her/his potential. It is further believed that all
school staff ultimately should be committed to providing quality
clinical practice and field experience placements.

therefore form the axis for assessment and evaluation:
