Accreditation

The Lindenwood University Teacher Education Programs are accredited by the Commission on Institutions of Higher Education (HLC) of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools (NCA) and the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE). The School of Education is also a member of the Teacher Education Accreditation Council (TEAC).

The Lindenwood University School of Education faculty believe that developing and enhancing an educator as a instructional leader involves an act of blending both “art" and "science" for the most effective preparation experience.

The Spellmann Clock Tower reflects the relationship between the “art” and “science” similar to the education program at Lindenwood University. The aesthetics, or “art” of a clock, is only one component of crafting a well-designed clock. The fine mechanics, or exact “science” involved, is essential in order to produce a timepiece that is an efficient tool. An observer appreciates a well-designed clock for both its beauty and functionality. Like the “art” and “science” of a clock, certified educators practice and portray a similar balance in their professional and personal journey.
