On June 3rd, we had the distinct privilege to celebrate the accomplishments of our Spring Teacher Candidates at our biannual Teacher Candidate Appreciation Banquet!

God's richest blessings as you continue on in your education careers!

"Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts" (Colossians 3:16).

We're kicking off Teacher Appreciation Week by celebrating every educator whose care and creativity change lives. You are a blessing to your students and to the teaching profession!

A special shout out to our alumni community—teachers like Josh Gonzalez ’07, MA ’16—who continue to inspire.

Happy Teacher Appreciation Week! May God bless you in these final weeks of the school year!

Kicking off Teacher Appreciation Week with a story worth celebrating.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel recently highlighted WLC alum Josh Gonzalez ’07, MA ’16, whose hands-on approach to agricultural education is inspiring students in and beyond the classroom.

We’re proud to see Warriors like Josh making a meaningful impact — one student, one lesson at a time.

WLC’s School of Education has an advisory council made up of area teachers and administrators along with our faculty and student teachers. Once a year we ask an area educator to address the group on a significant issue in the field of education. Earlier this week, Dr. Ron Russ, superintendent of the Merton School District, provided our group with a presentation on the topic, Schools in an Age of Teacher Shortages. Our group benefited greatly from his thoughtful insights and practical perspective.

Garrett Manderville, a member of the leadership team at St. Marcus Lutheran and principal of North Avenue Middle School, addressed students in Portfolio Seminar this week.

Our EDU 327 Teaching Science students had an incredible field trip experience at Deer Creek Intermediate, where they had the opportunity to learn firsthand about innovative STEM education in action. A huge thank you to Mr. Peter Graven for welcoming our students and sharing the exciting opportunities available to learners in his program!

Students were inspired by the engaging STEM initiatives taking place and gained valuable insights into how to build their own personal learning networks. Mr. Graven also offered practical advice on finding resources and exploring third-source funding opportunities—tools that will be invaluable as our future educators begin shaping their own classrooms.

We are so grateful for this meaningful partnership and the chance for our students to see excellent teaching and learning in action. Thank you, Mr. Graven, for the outstanding work you’re doing to empower students every day!

FTEA was honored to welcome alumni teachers Mrs. Emily Wagner, Mrs. Hilary Szukalski, Mr. Corbin Biersack, and Mrs. Kaylee Kramer for Alumni Night at WLC on February 26th. The event saw a strong turnout of education majors eager to learn from experienced professionals currently working in the field. Our guests thoughtfully answered a wide range of questions and shared meaningful advice to encourage and guide future educators.

The purpose of this annual event is to connect alumni with current students and provide an authentic glimpse into the realities of the teaching profession. Teaching is about far more than delivering lessons—it involves being an advocate, leader, decision-maker, and role model, while also maintaining a personal identity beyond the classroom. Balancing these responsibilities can be challenging, but hearing firsthand experiences from practicing teachers offered students reassurance, perspective, and support as they continue their journey toward becoming educators.

Empowering Future Educators through STEM Innovation!

Students in EDU 327 (Teaching Science) were honored to welcome Peter Haydock, founder of Gearbox Labs, as a guest speaker. Mr. Haydock shared his deep expertise in science and engineering, providing our future teachers with high-impact STEM methods used throughout the Milwaukee area.

Our students didn’t just listen—they rolled up their sleeves to code and utilize Arduino controllers to measure soil moisture. Thanks to the generosity of Gearbox Labs, our students received published materials to help them seamlessly integrate these innovative lessons into their own future classrooms.

We are incredibly grateful to Mr. Haydock and Gearbox Labs for investing in the next generation of WLC educators!
