Today's Students, Tomorrow's Teachers

Over 100 Rockland County students, parents, and administrators attend the annual Y/E Induction Ceremony held at Palisades Center.
It was an inspirational and motivating evening to celebrate another year of student success.

The TSTT 2023 Annual Recognition Brunch was a resounding success due to the collective effort and unwavering support of our sponsors, donors, volunteers, and attendees. Your presence and contributions played an integral role in making this event a truly memorable and inspiring experience! Thank you to all those who joined us!

Exciting news! Today's Students Tomorrow's Teachers (TSTT) Nassau region students recently visited the Brookhaven National Laboratory as part of our STEM initiative. Our students got to experience hands-on learning and explore the world of science and technology. Thanks to for hosting us and supporting our efforts to inspire the next generation of science and engineering teachers.

This month, and every month, we honor the struggles and celebrate the accomplishments of the Black community in America.

Black History Month started out as Negro History Week in 1926 by Black historian Carter G. Woodson and the Association for the Study of African American Life and History. It was a celebration of the accomplishments of Black people in American history. In the 1960s, when President Gerald R. Ford began to notice that college campuses were extending their celebrations throughout the entire month of February, he declared in 1976 that Negro History Week would become Black History Month.

Black History Month is an important opportunity to educate the public about where we've been and where we're going.

Celebrate and Learn About the Accomplishments of Black People. Black minds have invented tons of things we now take for granted.

Over 150 TSTT High School Juniors/Seniors, College students, teacher mentors from New York and Connecticut attended our annual Career Development Workshop held at Westchester Community College, Valhalla NY. It was a full day of leading and learning, a college fair, and workshops conducted by TSTT alums and school administrators. Congratulations to our Awesome Students and Special Thanks to all Facilitators! We can’t wait for part II in June.

Happy Holidays From TSTT!

Today’s Students Tomorrow’s Teachers (TSTT) honors the life of Lawrence Otis Graham.

During his 59 years, Graham, a graduate of Princeton University and Harvard University, became a successful lawyer and a New York Times bestselling author of 14 non-fiction books that exposed the prejudice hidden in American society.

An avid supporter of education, Graham delivered an inspiring and uplifting message to TSTT students and teachers at TSTT’s Annual Recognition Brunch in 1999.
Our heartfelt condolences to his beloved family. May He Rest In Peace!

Meet Dr. Zenya Richardson, Program Director and Assistant Professor of Teacher Education in the School of Education and Social Sciences. A graduate from Spring Valley High School, Zenya knows how much Rockland Community College, and the surrounding community, can offer future educators. "My hope is to help students not only find their passion, but to enlighten them on the earning potential the teaching profession has to offer, especially in NYS. We need teachers invested in children, families and communities to ensure access to an equitable education. Rockland Community College is a great place to start, and I want students to come back to Rockland County to teach!" Zenya is inspired by her mother, who was a guidance counselor in a juvenile detention center. "She taught me that all children need a champion, no matter what their circumstances. As an educator of future educators, I hope to instill that compassion, social justice, and advocacy into the classrooms for generations to come!" Thank you, Dr. Richardson for everything you do for RCC!

Thanks to all our alumni who attended the TSTT Alumni Holiday Chat.

This past weekend, the nation mourned the loss of Congressman John Lewis, a monumental figure in American politics. John Lewis was one of the most prominent civil rights leaders of our
generation.

TSTT CEO Dr. Bettye Perkins had the distinct honor of meeting Lewis in 2010 and in 2017 and on both occasions, he expressed his strong support for TSTT’s mission and encouraged her to “Keep up the Fight”. Dr. Perkins describes him as a “Kind and gentle giant” who was a great “humanitarian”.

John Lewis will be greatly missed; our hearts and prayers go out to his family.
