Overview

To progress and successfully complete the Urban Teachers program, a participant must meet performance expectations and program requirements; adhere to all state, district, and school policies and requirements; and abide by Urban Teachers and Johns Hopkins University and/or School of Education-specific conduct policies. Participants who do not meet any one or more of these requirements are subject to dismissal.

Urban Teachers and the Johns Hopkins University and/or the School of Education maintain different participant policies. When we state Urban Teachers, we are referring to a policy exclusive to Urban Teachers. When we state the Johns Hopkins University or School of Education, we are referring to a policy exclusive to the university or school.

PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS AND EXPECTATIONS

In addition to demonstrating that one is an effective teacher, there are coursework grade and GPA requirements, attendance expectations, and state/district teacher credentialing requirements for completing the Urban Teachers program. The table below gives a thumbnail overview of the various program requirements and expectations that are more fully discussed throughout this Participant Info Center. It is the responsibility of the participant to read and become familiar with all program policies and expectations in their entirety. If you have questions at any time about meeting the program expectations, please consult your site Assistant Director for guidance.
