Approved Minors for REPA Kindergarten-Grade 6 Program

Teacher candidates wishing to obtain a license for elementary education, Kindergarten - Grade 6 must complete a “minor” in a REPA content area along with a “major” that includes general education, professional education and student teaching. The purpose of a “minor” as a curriculum requirement for the elementary generalist is to ensure that every elementary teacher will have the opportunity to specialize in a specific content area. The Education Department along with other College departments provides the following minors:

The number of credit hours for a minor varies and is determined by the College department offering the minor. The content minor that is imbedded in the curriculum for the elementary generalist will not appear on the face of the issued teaching license. The dual license, Kindergarten-Grade 6/Mild Intervention, does not require a minor.
