Creating Opportunities & Resources for Educators (CORE)

The CORE program is committed to Creating Opportunities and Resources for Educators.  This innovative program is in response to the alarming and immediate need for teachers in Osceola County.  Many Osceola County District employees who currently work in support positions are interested in becoming teachers.  However, many of these potentially aspiring teachers are unable to reach their goal because of the difficulties of pursuing an education while working.  CORE is a program leading to the completion of the Pre-Major in Education (General Preparation) Associate of Arts degree and a Bachelor of Science in Elementary or Exceptional Education.  This program is tailored to the needs of these working adults. For more specific Pre-Major information see
