North Central Missouri College has partnered with Bright Futures Trenton as a Classroom Community Partner. NCMC SMSTA (Student Missouri State Teachers Association), a student organization for pre-service teachers, visited Ms. Tatum’s second-grade classroom at Rissler Elementary to read short stories and engage in a game of bingo.
Cassie Cordray, NCMC Teacher Education Instructor and SMSTA sponsor said, “Engaging with the community is an important part of preparing teacher candidates for their future in education. These connections will hopefully inspire a love of learning for future generations.”
North Central Missouri College will continue to be a Bright Futures Trenton Classroom Community Partner with various other student groups and interactions for the remainder of the school year. NCMC would like to thank Bright Futures Trenton, Rissler Elementary, and Ms. Tatum for the opportunity to partner and provide hands-on learning for our future teacher students.
