Anderson School District Two is proud to celebrate a group of our dedicated teachers who have earned their Master of Education in Teaching and Learning with an add-on ESOL Endorsement through Lander University!
This two-year program provided our teachers with an opportunity to grow professionally, strengthen their instructional practices, and better serve our diverse learners. Even better, ASD2 covered the cost of tuition for the program!
As part of the program, participants commit to remaining in Anderson School District Two for three years after earning their M.Ed., allowing our students and schools to benefit from the knowledge and expertise these educators have gained.
We are incredibly proud of their hard work, dedication, and commitment to our students and ASD2! Congratulations on this outstanding accomplishment!
We are proud to invest in our teachers because investing in our teachers means investing in our students!
