The Anchorage School District partners with universities in and outside of Alaska to place teaching, counseling, and social work interns with mentors.
For Spring 2026 placements, the application window is September 8 through October 10, 2025.
You are about to embark upon an amazing journey, and we are excited to support you in your endeavors! Student teaching is the capstone of your university program. Now is the chance to solidify your philosophy of teaching, try out new strategies to help students learn, and experience first-hand the inner workings of a classroom community. You are steps away from being part of a profession that influences and impacts student lives forever.
Practicum Students: To arrange university practicum or observation hours, please contact the principal of the school directly. Principals will facilitate practicum placement within their buildings. There is a maximum of 80 hours per semester.
School Social Work Students: In our current model, School Social Work students complete the required school-based practicum (which is equivalent to an internship in student teacher and school counselor programs) hours supervised by a School Counselor. We recognize that there is a difference between the roles of a School Social Worker and a School Counselor, but we are excited for you to have a great learning experience with a fellow professional who values your unique skills.
If you are a University of Alaska-Anchorage (UAA) student in the SSWEND program, please note that in your application for placement.
