The world needs teachers. SEMO will equip you for the 21st century classroom.
SEMO has been preparing teachers for more than 150 years, but much has changed. Today, we’re equipping our students pursuing education careers with the knowledge and experience to lead tomorrow’s classrooms. You’ll learn how to teach with technology in education, from virtual reality to bots in our EDvolution Center, a one of its kind technology learning lab. Our EDvolution model of teaching and focus on 1:1 tech has made us an Apple Distinguished School.
Our programs put you in front of your own class earlier and offer more field hours than most programs in the state. You want to inspire the next generation. We invite you to learn with the leader in education innovation.
