Hey, KCKPS! We love turning your paras into teachers!❤️
Ready to take the next step toward becoming a certified teacher? There’s still time to join us.
KCKPS invites you to a virtual information session tomorrow to learn more about the Teacher Apprentice Program (TAP). This program supports paraprofessionals and instructional staff in earning a Bachelor of Arts in Early Childhood Unified or Elementary Education through Wichita State University—all while continuing to work in your current school role.
Hear from those who have experienced the impact of TAP:
“My name is Jenna Par, a first-generation college graduate and refugee from Burma. I am a proud graduate of the TAP program, which allowed me to work toward my teaching degree while gaining hands-on classroom experience. The program supported my growth, built my confidence, and helped me move closer to my goal of becoming an educator. I am truly grateful to the district for this meaningful opportunity.”
Virtual Info Session
Monday, April 7
5–6 PM
