Attendance Policy

United States University expects candidates to attend school each day that their assigned class(s) is/are in session, for the entire placement period. As such, candidates will participate in the same schedule as the Cooperating Teacher. Students must also attend the student teaching Seminars via synchronous video conferencing. The California Teaching Commission requires that all candidates complete 600 hours of student teaching regardless of school schedules, holidays, illness, etc. In addition, students must log into and complete a discussion board post each week in two courses as well as attend weekly synchronous meetings with their university supervisor.
