About This Program

The Middle Childhood Generalist Social Studies (4-6) Endorsement Preparation non-degree endorsement program prepares educators to teach grades 4-6 in the concentration areas that are listed on the license. Completion of the coursework is a prerequisite to being recommended by Kent State University for endorsement, which is granted by the Ohio Department of Education.

This endorsement can be added to a Middle Childhood license for graduates of Kent State's middle childhood initial licensure education program after 2004.
