Canisius College Western New York Teacher Residency Program Graduates First Class
The Western New York Teacher Residency (WNYTR) program at Canisius College graduates its first class. Six will graduate from the master's degree program on May 13, 2020, and receive New York State certification in Childhood and Special Education (grades 1-6). Through the Canisius College Western New York Teacher Residency program, aspiring educators complete master's level coursework while building their skills under the guidance of experienced teachers and leaders in high-need schools and districts. Similar to medical school residencies, where physicians are trained in hospitals alongside practicing clinicians, residents in this program co-teach for a full year alongside skilled mentor teachers, who coach and gradually ease them into more teaching responsibilities throughout the school year.
