Where The Learning Continues-WTLC WTLC provides a post-high school educational experience at West Texas A&M University for high functioning young adults with intellectual disabilities.

Created in 2002, Where the Learning Continues (WTLC) provides a post-high school educational experience for high-functioning young adults with intellectual challenges. WT’s program is one of only three similar programs in the state. During the four-year program students receive instruction in reading, mathematics, writing and computing, reinforcing subjects learned in high school and further building skills for independence. Students attend class Monday through Thursday from 8 am to 11 am on the WT campus during the fall and spring semesters. After completing 8 semesters students participate in the WTAMU commencement ceremonies earning a certificate of completion. Students pay $1500 in tuition per semester. As part of the tuition, students receive access to the computer center and Activities Center as well as free admission to football games and fine arts events. Since they are not matriculated WTAMU students, housing is not available. Applications for the program can be obtained through the Education on Demand office. The completed application will include contact information, health information, a school AEP and references. If the student meets all eligibility requirements, an interveiw with the student and parent(s) is scheduled with a panel including a WTLC parent, a WT representative, and the Education on Demand director. Upon the approval of the panel, the student begins WTLC at the start of the next long semester, either fall or spring.

Every great program has someone who helps hold it all together - and for us, that is Pam!

Pam is the glue that keeps our program running smoothly. Her impact goes far beyond the classroom. She has a special way of giving our students (and staff) confidence, encourging them to believe in themselves, and reminding them that they are capable of more than they realize.

And, somehow she does it all with a smile on her face!

With a heart of gold and genuine passion for our students and the WTLC program, Pam makes a difference every single day. We are incredibly grateful for the kindness, encouragement and positivity she brings to our program.

Thank you, Pam, for being the heart of what we do! ❤
We're so lucky to have you!
