What school to attend in MA/RI area for teaching?

Question

My fiance is considering U MASS Dartmouth, Bridwater State, and Roger Williams to attend for elementary education. Any insight into the ed. program at any of the schools or any other suggestions? Thanks!

Answer 1

Of the 3 you listed, only Bridgewater is accredited by the National Counsil for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE).  I don't know if that makes a difference to your fiance.  I've attached the link to NCATE in case you want to investigate other colleges in Mass. or RI.  Personally, I like Rhode Island College.  It has an elementary school attached to it.
