Future Teacher Send-Off

On May 24, 2024, the Future Teacher Send-Off event celebrated the achievements of over 150 student teachers, each on the brink of graduation. Students from undergraduate, Transition to Teaching, and Master’s in Teaching programs gathered to mark the culmination of their rigorous and transformative educational journeys. The ceremony was a heartfelt tribute to the future educators who are ready to inspire and shape the next generation, their commitment to the teaching profession shining brightly. Many of the graduating students were participants of the EWU Reading Club, a partnership with Spokane Public Schools to help literacy in grade school.

This send-off was not just a celebration of academic achievement but a powerful reminder of the noble path these graduates have chosen. With their passion for teaching and their readiness to make a difference, these future educators are set to embark on a rewarding journey, equipped with the knowledge and skills to foster growth, curiosity, and resilience in their future classrooms.
