The Bridge program allows a teacher with an existing CA Education Specialist credential to “bridge” over and earn their Single Subject credential. Teachers that qualify for this one-year program must be teaching a specific content area in a 6-12 grade classroom setting.
For teachers holding an existing Education Specialist Credential and three years teaching experience. The HTH District Intern Bridge program is a one-year commitment with weekly class meetings on Tuesdays and or Wednesdays, 4:45 – 7:45 pm.
The Single Subject credential, 6-12, authorizes teaching the specific subject(s) named on the credential in departmentalized classes such as those in middle and high schools. The HTH District Intern Program uses the CalTPA (Teaching Performance Assessment) to measure a candidate’s knowledge, skills, and abilities. CalTPA preparation and assignments are embedded within coursework and CalTPA cycle #1 must be completed by March 2021.
