Education Outreach

The Wayne State College Education Outreach program is currently servicing our region by providing mentoring programs for schools and communities. This program is funded through the Nebraska Teacher Quality Grant. Our main objective is to assist students and parents with information on higher education. This funding source allows the outreach programs to create Future Teachers Associations on all campuses.
