How ToLOWER SCHOOL ELECTIVES
CTT currently offers an
extensive program of Electives courses. Each one offers a
great deal of information, followed by structured research
to be done by the student to discover the current situation
regarding that area of concern. The entire program may be
used, or specific courses, to fill specific needs. These
programs currently include courses in various arts such as
animation, music theory and acting, as well as current event
courses (usually ecommended for students ages
11-adult). Some of the current event subjects we offer
are
Poverty & World Hunger
;
Endangered Species
;
Environmental Concerns; Energy Concerns; Racism; Current
Wars; Emerging Third World Countries; Religious Intolerance
; and
Terrorism
.
