• Members of the T.E.A.M. Teach program and Student Support Services took a road trip last Saturday to CSU Stanislaus to attend their 14th annual “Student to Teacher Transition Conference”. 35 of our WHC Lemoore students jumped on a bus to go up to the event where they learned about financial aid and scholarships for future teachers, how to succeed in your first year of teaching, and techniques for engaging students in the classroom. One of our T.E.A.M. Teach crew,Moises Gutierrez, put together a 2 minute video about the event and that you can check out below, just click on the link below this message!
