LOCAL EDUCATION EXPERT/AUTHOR PRESENTS PROGRAM AT LIBRARY

Sister Dorothy Prokes, F.S.E., founder of Pocatello’s CRE-ACT School, will present a program especially for educators May 27, 2009 from 7:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at the Marshall Public Library, 113 South Garfield Avenue. Prokes will discuss her recent book, A Road Map to Education, in which she outlines her CREative ACTing approach to education that she developed in 1972 after more than 30 years as an educator. This alternative approach to a traditional curriculum involves the integration of the visual arts, music, dance and drama into the curriculum in order to encourage personal development and formation among students.
Copies of A Road Map to Education will be available for purchase at the program, as well as copies of the accompanying teacher’s manual. For more information, call the Library at 232-1263 extension 41.
