Name change while student teaching

Okay this might be a far fetched questions but:

I am going to be student teaching in the fall. I already handed in all my paper work etc. But I got married in Dec and changed my name well partially haha. All I have to do at school to make the change is bring in my new SS card. But I am afraid it will screw up my student teaching information. Like they will have me under Catherine X for student teaching and give that name to the schools that I will be working in. But the actual rosters and diploma will have Catherine Y and all general info will get screwed up when mailing me info etc.

So do you think I should just wait and change my name at the school after I graduate? And if so how do I change my name on my teaching certifcate so I can go by my new name once I start teaching.


Thanks for any advice/info.

I would wait and change your name after you graduate to keep it consistant.

Re: Name change while student teaching

I got married in June and student taught that September. I spoke to the schools I was student teaching at beforehand and let them know of the change. One of my cooperating teachers called me over the summer and I let her know then. It was easier than I thought it would be.
