Teach SWLA
is McNeese State University’s initiative to identify
exceptional professionals from the community who recognize
the challenges and rewards of teaching and want to commit to
making a difference in Southwest Louisiana. Teach SWLA was
created to recruit outstanding candidates to pursue teacher
certification and guide them along the path to leading their
own classroom. Teach SWLA’s goal is to bring outstanding
professionals and recent graduates to schools where their
skills and knowledge are needed most. Alternative
certification candidates can pursue certification while
teaching full time in on of the parishes in Southwest
Louisiana. Hiring decisions are made by individual school
systems.
