For Dual Enrollment Teachers

For High School Teachers: 

  • Qualifications: 

    For the courses where high school teachers teach WP courses at the high school and are supervised by WP professors, qualifying high school teachers typically have a master’s degree in the discipline or related area to teach WP courses.  These certified high school teachers should submit their CV or resume to the appropriate William Paterson academic department for review.  The department approves qualified high school teachers as meeting the standards required of an adjunct professor.

  • Course Alignment: 

    The high school teacher must work with the supervising WP professor to ensure that the high school course contains all WP course Student learning course outcomes (SLO’s) and ensures they are all assessed and achieved.  The high school teacher cooperates with the WP supervising professor to arrange periodic visits to the high school class (either in-person or virtual) to ensure content collaboration and proper course alignment.
