Teachers for Tomorrow Program

Posted: May 19, 2020

You can complete six dual enrollment courses (24 credits) through Germanna Community College (GCC), which will transfer to the University of Mary Washington (UMW). These six courses will start your pathway towards elementary education, secondary education, pre-k-12 education, or special education. The program is offered to rising juniors and seniors. Students can choose to start their college education at GCC or transfer these courses directly to UMW. Transportation will be provided to the Dual Enrollment program.

Program Benefits:
- Introduction to teaching and the teaching profession
- Opportunities to satisfy beginning teacher assessment requirements
- Dual enrollment credit
- Scholarship information
- Field trips
- Classroom observations
- Educational leadership
- Teaching experience before college
- Opportunity to make a difference in a student’s life
- Meaningful, creative, and hands-on learning activities
Please Note:

Prospective students may be required to complete an application for admission, provide qualifying SAT scores, or take a placement test. They also will register through their high school in the spring. Tuition is the responsibility of the parents. In determining whether to drop a DE course, the student must follow drop/add procedures and timelines established by the college, not those of the school division. Additionally, students must provide their own transportation to all required practicums. SCPS, however, will make every effort to help any student who does not have transportation available for practicums.

See your counselor today!

Class Websites Mobile App Reported Issues

Posted: December 11, 2018

We have reported to our school division the Class Websites mobile app issues that users are experiencing when utilizing the StudentVUE/ParentVUE mobile app on their device. These issues are being investigated further. The issues explained below are division-wide and not just isolated to our high school.

Reported Issue #1:

Users of the StudentVUE/ParentVUE mobile app may experience an error message when selecting the Class Websites button. The user will be unable to view any class websites through the mobile app only.

The workaround for this issue is to access your StudentVUE/ParentVUE account from your device’s Web browser rather than the mobile app by pointing your Web browser to https://psp.staffordschools.net.

Reported Issue #2:

Users of the StudentVUE/ParentVUE mobile app will be unable to view multiple file attachments that are posted by a teacher on the class pages when selecting the Class Websites button for a student’s courses. This issue is present when a user is able to access the Class Websites button from the mobile app (see Reported Issue #1). This issue only appears in the mobile app.

The workaround for this issue is to access your StudentVUE/ParentVUE account from your device’s Web browser rather than the mobile app by pointing your Web browser to https://psp.staffordschools.net.
