Prospective Thornton teachers are selected from approximately 450 placement bureaus. Recommendations and credentials of college graduates seeking a teaching position at the high school are carefully surveyed by the per- sonnel, director, the principals, and the depart- ment heads of both Thornridge and Thornton high schools. Thornton's faculty members are generally understanding, considerate, and will- ing to help the students. Professional and aca- demically well integrated, Thornton's teachers rank high in leadership qualities. Illinois State law requires heginning teachers to ohtain a minimum ol' eight semester credits of student teaching in their selected lield before certilica- tion. With the joint participation of Illinois uni- versities and colleges, teachers are selected to serve their internship in our classrooms. The student teaching program is heneficial to the student teachers, the experienced classroom in- structor, and the students of Thornton as well. The apprentice instructors learn new methods of teaching and communicating with students in and out of class. Likewise, the regular teacher shares his experience with the young profes- sional. 3' ,gb
