Attention, folks at Lincoln Street!
Look at what Lifelong Learning is offering this semester!
Take a look at our course catalog for exciting offerings! For example, one class teacher is connecting with a civil engineer to learn and teach how ponds and dams are made! Other class teachers are using their personal travels as inspiration for their classes!
Remember, as a Lifelong Learning participant, YOU choose what you learn and teach about. Class topics this semester range from social-emotional skills to civil engineering and plenty of interesting topics in between! Previous semesters have featured classes on various sports, creative writing, self-love, various music genres, and many more.
With an emphasis on community connections, participants of Lifelong Learning attend classes hosted at the River Valley Tech Center and have built a strong relationship with the Springfield Town Library. Lifelong Learning participants have learned new skills at the Springfield Library, such as sewing and Cricut crafts. Lifelong Learning teachers have partnered with community members, such as retired professional baseball players, tattoo artists, and IT teachers to co-teach classes of interest, the sky is the limit!
Lifelong Learning at Lincoln Street, Inc., gives people the opportunity to learn with and teach topics of expertise to their peers and to form connections with community members with similar interests.
We are very thankful for the educational space provided by RVTC for supporting us in adult education!
We are grateful to the Springfield Library for partnering with us on a grant that has enabled our folks to learn, alongside other community members, how to sew and use the Cricut machine!
