At the end of the spring semester, the SP or UP will be converted to the same letter grade that is obtained for the full spring student teaching internship. • To receive a grade of SP, all outcomes specified above must be completed • If any of the components are not submitted, this will result in a grade of UP and the inability to continue the student teaching internship
