Dallas ISD creates a welcoming and supportive environment for clinical teachers to grow professionally and to be prepared for their teaching experience. We fulfill this mission by offering our best teachers to mentor, hosting career workshops to prepare future teachers for interviews, and providing support for clinical teachers to navigate the district.

Dallas ISD welcomes student teachers during the Fall and Spring semesters. To request placement for student teaching, please follow the guidelines below:
**We are currently accepting requests from colleges, universities, alternative certification programs, and their affiliated program personnel. If you are interested in clinical teaching or completing classroom observations, please have your Educator Preparation Program representivative contact the Student Teachers Coordinators at clinicalteaching@dallasisd.org to get started.
Please note the following:
Students are strongly discouraged from reaching out to principals or individual teachers requesting placement. All requests must go through the Human Capital Management department. You are welcome to include requests for specific placements (teacher, campus, grade level). We will do our best to accommodate these requests.
**If you do not see your program listed above, please contact clinicalteaching@dallasisd.org for further assistance.
