Eastern Kentucky University

 TLC goes to EKU


Ms. Mitchell took part in taking some of TLC's finest students to Eastern Kentucky University. The purpose? "We took a group of students (Clarissa, Korey, Justin, Andres, and Luis,) to share their educational experiences from their home school and fromTLC with a group of future teachers and future principals taking graduate classes at EKU. " Students talked in a panel in the front of the classroom; they were the center of attention.  They first introduced themselves and they talked about what we do at TLC versus at a traditional school. Then, students asked questions prepared by the EKU graduates," explained Ms. Mitchell. So, how did the students handle being the focus of a roomful of graduate students? "I was very impressed by the poise of the students and how they answered the questions.  They were honest and articulate."  It sounds like they gave the teachers many suggestions on  different strategies that will help them meet the needs of all learners in their classroom.  Well done, TLC!
