Our EET students students are generally juniors and seniors that attend Madison Junior and Senior High School, Skowhegan Area High School, Upper Kennebec Valley High School and Carrabec High School.  All of the students are in year 1 of a 2 year program.  Seniors will only be able to attend 1 year.

What is the EET program?

The EET Program  is for students interested in a career working with children.  Students learn about child development, psychology, curriculum design, and classroom management.  Students receive 10 college credits, CPR/First Aid Certificates, State of Maine Early Childhood Assistant certification, and enrollment in the Maine Roads to Quality professional registry.  Students assist in a variety of settings including infant/toddler classrooms, childcare facilities, Pre-K to 8th grade classrooms, and special education programs.  This is a career pathway for early childhood, elementary, middle, and secondary teaching, counseling, pediatric nursing, speech/language, occupational and physical therapy and special education positions.
