ICE CREAM SOCIAL THURSDAY! In our continuing effort to honor our #teachers, this afternoon there's a big #NWTI Ice Cream Social! As you can plainly see - - we have #fun. And because they really deserve it, the table spread included some of everything! Scoopmaster Ashley Simpson - Secondary Education Director, wasn't a ton of help - - look at that tiny ice cream "scoop!" It got a little contentious as you can see Automotive Technology Instructor - John Lindsay, threatening one of his peers with a plastic spoon. John there's plenty for everyone! #thankyou #thankateacher #nationalteachersweek #icecream #nwarkansas #party

ARE CRUNK CUPS STILL A THING? LOL...As another token of our #appreciation during Teacher's Week, Surgical Technology Director/Instructor Kendra Thompson shows off today's tribute: a high quality, extra-large Thermos! Remember taking those to school? Actually it's a double- insulated (hot or cold) drink tumbler! Proudly emblazoned with our NWTI logo and given out to all of our #instructors. Tuesday we celebrated from 1pm - 4pm with a Faculty Snack Bar. Apparently some enjoyed it more than others! Pictured in this post is our Information Systems Director/Instructor Molly Colorado, "enjoying a snack." In all seriousness we continue to salute our teachers this week. Thank you for all that you do! #faculty #teachers #teachersweek #education #thankateacher #nwarkansas

#NWTI Eclipse Mania! Here at Northwest Technical Institute in Springdale, we got almost 95% eclipse totality. The light got eerie, but our celebration with #staff, #faculty and #students did not! Our guests from Japan also stayed for the #viewing festivities. And Automotive Technology Instructor John Lindsey broke out an eBike - - although he didn't let anyone else ride it! A great afternoon after a great morning here at NWTI, and one of the best things about it? NO #TRAFFIC! #eclipse2024 #nwarkansas #totality #getoutofclass

THIS IS MAYRA GARCIA. At our most recent Board of Directors' Meeting, she led us all in the Pledge of Allegiance. Here's just a little bit about Mayra and why we're so proud to have here at #NWTI. Mayra is a very #dedicated #student. She started attending our family literacy classes at Tyson Elementary in September 2022. Since then, she has been taking ESL #classes at our Adult Education Center as well as a #citizenship class in preparation for the #naturalization process. Mayra is also a part of the PTLA (Parents Taking Leadership & Action) program at Westwood Elementary, where she has been participating for years. While being a #Mom to three children, along with all of these and other obligations, she continues to have a #positive #attitude, and her English is improving greatly. We're all so proud of her hard work! #education #esl #adulteducation #leadership #support
