Students assist experienced preschool teachers with creating lesson plans, reading to children, assisting with crafts and snack time, and so much more.
Did you know that Bertschi Center used to be MAC's gym? When the ACWC was completed in 2014, Bertschi was renovated to include a multipurpose room, commuter lounge, study areas, and more.
