Columbia State Community College hosted a signing event with Maury County Public Schools that establishes a pre-apprenticeship program designed to foster the next generation of local teachers. This state-certified program was designed to streamline a path to transition current educational and teacher assistants into becoming certified teachers through the partnership of Columbia State and the Maury County Public Schools District. The partnership offers students the ability to earn an associate degree at Columbia State, continue to a four-year school to further their education, and ultimately, receive in-classroom experience and employment opportunities at Maury County Public Schools.

The road to teacher certification in Maury County just got a lot easier, thanks to a partnership between Maury County Public Schools and the Youth Educational Foundation. The Tennessee educator preparation program through iteach, allows individuals to become a teacher without a traditional education degree. MCPS and YEF are offering up to 40 iteach scholarships, worth a total combined value of up to $112,000 to qualified Maury County Public Schools employees that desire to become a teacher.

Maury County Public Schools saw an increase in proficiency across all subject areas in the 2025 TCAP assessment.
