    University Student Observations (only for assignments that need less than 20 hours)  

    This is not the traditional student teacher placement and usually is less than 20 hours of observations in a classroom. Please contact the specific school site Principal directly to request permission if you need to observe a classroom. MVUSD will not make an observation placement for you unless it is 21 hours or more; you will need to do this by reaching out to the school of interest.
