For Teacher Appreciation Day, we want to express our deepest gratitude for our amazing instructors. WANIC Skill Center is unique because our programs are located throughout the consortium and not in a single building. We want to acknowledge all the work these fine humans do for our students. We were pleased to finally get a photo of most of them together in March!
