JMU Student Involvement


The student participants in the Young Children's Program are in the first semester of the teacher preparation program and are enrolled in courses that focus on child development and curriculum. They have a dual role at the YCP--serving as both observers and teaching assistants.  Students experience an extensive orientation to the program and expectations for professional interaction and dispositions.
