MAT ’98 – 
The ATP program could not have better prepared me for the classroom and educational field. Austin College was a transforming experience, fueling the passion I already possessed for children and teaching. In 2004, with the help & support of my AC mentor, I was led to open a private school in Sherman. Montessori Academy of North Texas, serving students 18 months through 6th grade. If you are looking for a community of deeply knowledgeable professors that will prepare you to be a dynamic instructional coach, a leader & role model, a student centered educational advocate and community liaison, the Austin Teacher Program is the ONLY choice!
