Ontario’s Minister of Education, Jill Dunlop, added a stop on her tour of Windsor-Essex on Tuesday to observe Aleshia St. Louis, a teacher candidate from the University of Windsor’s Faculty of Education, in her practicum placement.
The visit to L.A. Desmarais Catholic Elementary School highlighted the practical experience that teacher candidates gain in the classroom, allowing the Minister to see firsthand the impact of in-class teacher training in preparing future educators.
