WTCS-in-Brief
Wisconsin's technical colleges in the news

January 12, 2021
FVTC dual credit course helps Laconia teacher inspire students
"Students earn both Laconia High School and Fox Valley Technical College credit. I think this helps students realize that college - whether attending a 2-year or 4-year program - is a possibility. Some students can’t break out of their negative “I can’t do this” mindset, but once taking courses like this one, they see that postsecondary education is possible."
