Flowing Wells/Arizona Teaching Fellows Program

The Flowing Wells/Arizona Teaching Fellows is a unique program offered through a partnership between the University of Arizona and Flowing Wells.  Students in the program work closely with the Flowing Wells School District throughout their teacher preparation program, completing all of the fieldwork in our District with one or more mentor teachers who are also dedicated to working with children and adolescents in Southern Arizona.

If you are an energetic person interested in becoming a teacher and making a difference in the lives of our students, then this is the program for you!

2. Work closely with and complete all fieldwork in the Flowing Wells School District with several mentor teachers
