Tonight we celebrated all of our 2026 graduates at the 2nd annual EPCSE Hooding & Pinning Ceremony! All of our students received a special pin while our Master’s students were officially hooded with the their light blue (education) blue & white (for PSU) hoods. Our very own Shi Richardson (MEd) gave an incredible speech about the difference we can make as special education teachers- empowering our students to use their voices 🩵 We love any opportunity to celebrate our phenomenal grads and can’t wait to see them walk across the stage at graduation this weekend!

We had a kicking time celebrating our graduating seniors this week with a taco party. 🌮 But the highlight of the evening was the Cozad Kickball game: team Dexter vs. Team Kaleb. It was a close game but team Kaleb came back from a 11 run deficit to win the game! Lots of laughs and grass stains were had. We are grateful for a group who knows how to have fun! Leaders in the field! ☄️🎓

Happy Teacher Appreciation week 2026! 💚 This feels like a meaningful week given we are proudly adding 41 new special education teachers to the field this weekend! 🍎 This week we are grateful for the teachers who shaped us as young learners, those who told us we could and pushed us to do more, and those who guided us on our own journeys to become educators. 📚 Thank you doesn’t even begin to cover all of the sacrifices, love, time, joy, and passion teachers pour into their students. You are our inspiration and why we continue to do what we do!

Presenting our cohorts of the class of 2026! Tonight we officially welcomed our students into the Alumni network in the College of Education with a pinning ceremony where mentors and supervisors pinned their student teachers. We are truly so proud of our students accomplishments, grateful beyond words to our incredible mentor teachers, and lucky to have such supportive supervisors! What an incredible group of educators! 🍏 Cheers to our undergraduate and masters classes of 2026! 🎓

Caps off! 🎓📄 Our Master’s students successfully presented their capstone and writing projects today! We are so very proud of their hard work- and it was an honor to see how much their students had grown due to the interventions they provided. Today marked their last official class as a masters student- and next weekend they will walk across that stage as official graduates!
