Who We Are
Established in 1981, the mission of the Suncoast Area Teachers Training (SCATT) program lives on 43 years later and continues to be a hallmark of the USF College of Education experience for aspiring educators. The SCATT program inspires, informs and develops our future educators through extracurricular activities characterized by collaboration, celebration and support. We prepare student teachers to make a difference in their classrooms, schools and communities upon graduation.
What We Do
Calling all alumni and friends of the SCATT program! Help make sure that SCATT student experiences continue to inspire our future educators, prepare them for day one in the classroom and create an everlasting community of professional and personal support.
Your Impact
The SCATT program stands as a beacon of hope and inspiration for future educators. We have a shared passion for excellence and a commitment to shaping the narrative of education. SCATT has evolved into a close-knit community of aspiring teachers who are excited about and deeply motivated to make a meaningful difference in the lives of students.
Members of SCATT come together in monthly collaborative meetings filled with camaraderie and support. They navigate academic challenges, problem-solve and brainstorm innovative ways to enhance their internships and reshape the discourse around teaching. We strive to stay up to date with professional learning and the latest initiatives and innovations.
