I have always appreciated how the high-quality education I received at Madison enabled me to have a successful life in the corporate world |  | A professional development school (PDS) is analogous to a teaching hospital: it is a school in which the School of Education has formed a deep and lasting partnership with exemplary teachers to help prepare teachers. The School has established these long-term partnerships with four Madison elementary and middle schools and will be entering into a new relationship with a high school.
Approximately one-third of the School's elementary student teachers are prepared in these PDSes, and the School is seeking to increase that proportion.
Private support will enable the School to recognize the University and school staff members who work together in these partnerships and foster innovation in preparing the next generation of teachers. Such support could help to make the PDS project at UW-Madison a national model for the preparation and professional development of quality teachers. |
