The Dallas Post Dallas, PA Wednesday, October 20, 1993 5 Dallas High hosts teachers’ workshop Dallas High School recently hosted a meeting of educators from Wilkes University and the Dallas School District in recogni- tion of the high school's leader- ship in the Professional Aware- ness for Cooperating Teachers (PACT) initiative. The PACT program was devel- oped by Wilkes University and public school educators in 1990 to update techniques for prepar- ing college students to become teachers. The graduate-level course at Wilkes University opens channels of communication between the university and the local public schools, encouraging public school teachers to refine their training of university students completing student teaching with them. Public school administrators have expressed their support for their staff members’ participation by letters of recommendation submitted to the university. The contemporary plan is one in which _ the student teacher, the PACT cooperating teacher, and the school principal coordinate efforts and energies each day for the benefit of students. Student teaching for Wilkes students at Dallas now is a coher- ent effort of cooperating teacher and university. The careful coor- dination of public school stan- dards and university goals pro- vides a highly refined experience for both the student teacher and the public school students, all under the supervision of veteran educators.
