The Wescoe School of Muhlenberg College

Wanna Teach?

Muhlenberg College has been educating teachers for more than 100 years. Starting with "The Saturday School for Teachers" in 1910, this highly regarded program has been a leader in providing outstanding teachers in all grades in compliance with the Pennsylvania Department of Education guidelines.

The Wescoe School teacher certification program is aligned with that provided by the traditional day program at Muhlenberg and has both our outstanding full-time faculty as well as highly qualified adjunct faculty as instructors. The Wescoe School offers the newly established certification areas in Pennsylvania which include Pre-K-4, grades 4-8, and secondary grades 7-12.

One of the many strengths of the Teacher Certification program at Muhlenberg is a strong commitment to field experience. Our candidates begin their fieldwork early in the sequence of courses and enjoy experiences in a variety of settings and range of grade levels. These experiences can help clarify goals and give invaluable opportunities leading up to the student teaching semester.
