*For those completing their Clinical II/ Full Time Internship during the Spring 2025 semester* 

The TNTP Program is one of the first in the State of New Jersey in which student teachers will be compensated with a stipend of up to $10,000/semester to participate in the district’s student teaching program. In addition, student teachers who are selected to participate in this program also receive ongoing evening professional development sessions provided by WW-P throughout their student teaching semester. Upon the successful completion of the TNTP Program, student teachers will be required to apply for open district teaching positions. Program participants will also have prioritized application review for contracted teaching positions in the WW-P school district.

The TNTP program will continue into the spring semester for the 2024-2025 school year. Not all WW-P students teachers will receive the stipend. Only student teachers who are accepted into TNTP, complete all requirements for participation, and complete an application to district vacancies will be eligible. Payments will be made by WW-P to the program participants in two payments during their student teaching (Clinical II) semester. TNTP student teacher participants may also be eligible for an additional $3,000 stipend related to the Higher Education Student Assistance Authority (HESAA). WW-P student teachers are not considered WW-P employees and will not accrue time towards tenure, or be enrolled in the Teachers’ Pension & Annuity Fund during their student teaching semester.
