first Student Chapters of ASCD (Association for Supervision
and Curriculum Development), having formed this chapter
in 1996. Students in the School of Education were instrumental
in developing the chapter and continue to maintain it
with a process of revolving team leadership. |

development, the Aquinas ASCD Student Chapter offers a
series of workshops each year, focusing on issues near
and dear to the hearts of teacher candidates. |
