Secondary Science with Culturally & Linguistically Diverse Education Endorsement

Print Degree Planner (opens a new window) |

This endorsement area is designed to address Colorado’s teacher shortage in rural mountain school districts. The curriculum is focused on general science in order to meet the needs of rural schools often limited to hiring one teacher for all science courses. The Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CLD) endorsement is embedded to help teachers successfully teach the rapidly diversifying students in CMC’s partner school districts.
