Due to changing rules for placing students for fieldwork, I must now place every TCLDEL student in a fieldwork assignment, even if you work in a school or have an ongoing relationship with a school and have completed fieldwork in the school in the past.  This means that if in the past you just sent me the permission form signed by a principal or teacher, now I must contact the school first.  Therefore, if you have a placement that you have found on your own, please send me:

· The name of the school(s)

· The name and contact information of the principal(s)

· The name of your fieldwork teacher(s) or school contact(s)

· The teacher’s or contact’s title or responsibility

· Contact information (preferably email addresses) for the teacher(s) or school contact(s)

· Class(s) that require the fieldwork

· Number of fieldwork hours required

This information will be required each semester. For this semester, I need the information no later than Friday, September 11.

If you needed help finding a placement and have already contacted me to help you, you can disregard this email. 

Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
