The LCSEA Transitions class had the pleasure of recognizing two students for February Student of the Month, Nicole Miller and Anthony Ahrens. Both students are kind, hardworking, and always willing to lend a helping hand. In addition to these wonderful qualities, both students are exceptional role models for their peers and have shown significant growth in self-advocacy skills. Students were nominated by their peers and classroom staff. Congratulations Nicole and Anthony!

WACC, the Sauk Valley Chamber of Commerce, the University of Illinois Extension, and the Small Business Development Center (SBDC) have partnered to create a hands-on Entrepreneurship Camp. During this five-week experience, students will learn the fundamentals of entrepreneurship and develop their own business idea from concept to launch.
The camp will meet every Wednesday for five weeks, beginning June 10 and culminating on July 11, when campers will showcase and sell the products they’ve developed throughout the program.
