Thank you for your interest in Berkeley County School District!

All requests for practicum/observation and clinical internship placements must be approved prior to reporting to a school or district office department.

Please note the following to complete an application:

• Prior to submitting a request, you or your college advisor should already have communicated with a school/department supervisor regarding your placement request. This application is not intended to be the “first contact” with a school or department.
• An application represents one placement assignment for a specific date range. If you are seeking placements at multiple sites and different dates, you will have to complete one application per site.
• Do not report to a school/district department unless you have received an approval email to do so. You will receive an email stating your application was approved.

Additional considerations:

• Leave forms are only required for current BCSD employees seeking internships. Once completed, the form must be sent to your current supervisor.
• Background checks are required for all internships.
  • Student Teachers: Upload the Student Teaching Clearance letter from the SC Department of Education
  • Certified Admin Requests: Upload a copy of your current teaching certificate
  • All other internships: Upload documentation showing a background check has been completed on your behalf. This can be completed through your college/university, or through a private agency.
