Wayzata to formalize student‑teaching/externship agreements with UNI, UW‑Eau Claire and MNSU
Summary
The Oct. 14 board packet included three university agreements to support student‑teaching and clinical placements: a three‑year letter with University of Northern Iowa, a practicum memorandum with UW‑Eau Claire, and a joint‑powers concurrent‑enrollment/mentor agreement template with Minnesota State University, Mankato.
The board packet recommended formal approval of multiple higher‑education agreements to support student teaching, internships and concurrent‑enrollment partnerships for the 2024–25 academic year and beyond. The Letter of Agreement with the University of Northern Iowa covers scope, placement, supervision, evaluations, insurance (minimum $1,000,000 liability per occurrence) and a university stipend to cooperating teachers; the agreement term was written for three academic years (1/1/2025–12/31/2027) as presented in the packet (SEG 2066–2089).
A program memorandum with the UW‑Eau Claire Department of Communication Sciences & Disorders described an externship placement for a graduate student, required supervisor ASHA certification and immunization/background documentation and CALIPSO registration (SEG 2097–2106). Finally, a Minnesota State University, Mankato joint powers agreement template outlined concurrent enrollment terms — including a per‑course consideration of $3,300 per faculty‑mentor/high‑school instructor relationship and course capacity/placement rules (SEG 2108–2199). The packet lists recommended actions; board minutes should be consulted for final vote details.
