Huskies in the High School (HHS)
Teacher Qualifications
How to Become a HHS Educator
Experienced and energetic teachers who want to be challenged and challenge their students will find our concurrent enrollment program one of the most rewarding experiences of their career.
Great concurrent enrollment teachers are lifelong learners committed to staying current through reading, research and ongoing professional development and value participation in a vibrant community of learners.
We pair each high school teacher with an St. Cloud State faculty member who ensures that requirements, learning objectives and prerequisites are met. They are the faculty of record and your colleague/partner.
