Goals and Objectives:
Established in 1937, the goal of
the Future Educators Club is to expose students to the opportunities
available in the field of teaching, to cultivate the abilities
essential in a good teacher, to reveal various trends, techniques,
phases of education, and to foster the development of student
leadership. The Future Educators of America Club gives students
interested in becoming teachers the opportunity to assist teachers and
students in the classroom setting.
Students Benefit:
Future Educators is a club that
strives to produce an interest in students in the fields of education,
early in their school experience. The club places a strong
emphasis on recruitment of students with diverse ethnic, social, and
economic backgrounds. The club also promotes excellence in
students interested in the teaching profession by promoting academic
achievement, developing a positive self-image, and encouraging
leadership responsibilities.
The School and
Community Benefits:
This club also gives out a positive
image of education to students, parents and the community. It
will disseminate information about the teaching profession. Our

members to be positive role models in the school, organization and the
community.
