Passport to Success

Passport to Success Welcome to the Passport to Success Program! Follow us on Twitter

The Passport to Success Program was created in spring 2012 by the College of Education as a new academic enrichment and student engagement program. The Passport to Success is designed to more fully integrate the curricular and co-curricular aspects of NC State’s teacher education programs. Teacher education students are given the ability to design targeted “outside of the classroom” experiences th

at enhance what they learn inside the classroom. The Passport to Success Program was designed in alignment with the NC Professional Teaching Standards and is focused on four key themes: Global Knowledge, Community Engagement, Intercultural Skills and Professional Development. Ultimately, the objective is for NC State teacher education majors to graduate with a more comprehensive learning experience that will better prepare them for 21st century classrooms.

The Passport Scholars had a wonderful opportunity last Friday to visit the STEM program in Cabarrus County Schools. They visited classes at Patriots STEM Elementary, JN Fries Magnet Middle School and Central Cabarrus High School. Each school shared the innovative ways they are engaging students in the STEM disciplines and officials at the County Office were gracious enough to provide lunch and answer the scholars' questions about STEM and Cabarrus County Schools. It was a visit well worth the trip!
