Welcome to the Hunter College’s School of Education, founded in 1870 as New York City’s first teacher-preparation school. Our School of Education is dedicated to the preparation of deeply thoughtful, knowledgeable and highly effective teachers, administrators and counselors and to the advancement of scholarship that will improve knowledge about and the conditions of our communities. We approach these purposes with a shared belief that the promise of education to improve lives cannot be accomplished without addressing existing societal inequities and injustices.
Under the leadership of President Jennifer J. Raab, the President of Hunter College, SOE faculty, staff and students make significant contributions to lives of individuals, families and communities. Graduates of our programs assume roles of responsibility and leadership in PreK-12 classrooms, schools and school districts, research and policy centers, and community agencies. By using reflective practice and translating research into action, they are prepared to guide the academic, social and emotional development of children, adolescents and adults.
