Middle-level English Minor (Non-Endorsement)

The middle-level English minor is designed for students who are seeking teaching careers at the elementary or middle school level. While this minor does not result in a Washington State middle-level humanities endorsement which requires both the English and social studies content areas, it does provide additional training and expertise in the English and language arts content areas. Candidates seeking the elementary endorsement (K-8) can add this minor to provide an English/language arts content focus area to the generalist teaching degree. Teacher candidates at the middle-level and secondary-level can add this minor to broaden specialized content areas as the first step in adding middle-level humanities (English language arts and social studies) endorsement.
