Southeastern Louisiana University’s College of Education started a new tradition by hosting its first ever pinning ceremony.
The event celebrated 43 teacher candidates entering their final semester of year-long residency placements.
According to the college, the pinning ceremony is vital to continue prioritizing the principles of the profession of teaching, while simultaneously elevating it.
Two Southeastern alumnae and previous Resident Student Teachers of the Year, Makenzie Plaisance and Robin Henderson, addressed the attendees who included faculty, staff, mentor teachers, family, and friends.
The pinning ceremony will continue to honor Southeastern teacher candidates for semesters to come.
