Adult & Community Education
Tuesday in the Know - March 27, 2018
Message from the Leadership Team.
A large part of what we do with our students is not just academics or language acquisition but motivating and empowering our students and community. Back in January, LWTC had the opportunity to bring in a guest speaker, "The Cuban Guy", who spoke to all day time students about his experience as a refugee from Cuba. On Thursday, April 19 we have the opportunity to bring back The Cuban Guy to share, energize and motivate all of our evening students. We want to encourage ALL students to attend this exciting event. Over the next few weeks we ask all of you to share the date with your students. Let them know that we will be organizing transportation from their site to LWTC. Again, we are very excited to have the opportunity to bring ALL our students from our sites together .
