The Department of Education provides field experiences around Kent and Queen Anne’s
counties, giving our students access to organizations and programs to expand their
knowledge base by putting them side by side with working professionals.
Our field experiences are for credit and help you gain additional, hands-on experience
outside their courses. Work in formal or informal learning environments, in an area
rich with education, environment, history, and arts organizations and see how small
organizations undertake the work of educating the public.
Field placement options may vary depending on your areas of interest, but our department
has partnerships with the following organizations:
Kent County Public Schools, including H.H. Garnet Elementary School and Kent County
Middle School, both located in Chestertown, and Kent County High School in Worton.
Queen Anne’s County Public Schools, including Church Hill Elementary School.
Adkins Arboretum
The Betterton Heritage Museum
Echo Hill Outdoor School
Pickering Creek Audubon Center

The department has additional connections located in Washington, D.C., Baltimore,
Philadelphia, and other regional cities.
