Create the Building Blocks for Learning

School teachers play an essential role in the development of learning minds from pre-kindergarten to high school. They provide the educational building blocks for individuals to thrive in society.

At Clark, our classes allow educators to engage in the learning process through a well-rounded curriculum that includes child development courses. Instruction also exposes students to subjects including science, math, and history, as well as practical classes on introductory teaching methods.
