Meet The Teachers - June Archer - AUDIO
WWVOICES is excited to have June Archer as an instructor starting January 2021. His Master Class, The “Business” of Arts and Entertainment will take Hartford student behind the scenes of the music industry to understand the daily work involved with launching a successful music artist and project. Below is June’s Bio.
June first emerged on the music scene in 1995 as a member of the Elektra Records recording group Room Service. The group achieved radio and video success with the singles “Ain’t Nothing Wrong” and “Stay”, but he realized it was the business that drove him. Shortly after the group disbanded in 2000, June reconnected with executives and mentors who previously guided him while in the group and he gained insight into the business of music. These experiences solidified June’s conviction that having an undeniable impact on the entertainment industry was his calling.
He has also received RIAA Certification Plaques for Platinum selling works on albums by Jay-Z, 50 Cent and Mario and Gold selling work for Hitch movie soundtrack. He has also been honored by the NAACP as one of the “100 Most influential Blacks in Connecticut”.
June has been the recipient of many honors recognizing all his efforts within his home community of Hartford, CT including “June Archer Day” and “Hot Chocolate Soul Day”. The Mayor, along with the Governor of The State of Connecticut, acknowledges “100 Men of Color Day” in both the city of Hartford and State of Connecticut. Surprised by the board of “100 Men of Color”, June was also awarded for Community Service. Just recently, he was humbled at The 30th Annual State Capitol Martin Luther King Jr. Day Ceremony with The Martin Luther King, Jr. Award (2016). He has also been awarded for his community service by the “Connecticut Chapter of Men and Women for Justice, Inc” (2013), the “Walk Worthy Award” for community service (2010) and the “Caribbean Heritage Award (2010)”

Meet The Teachers - Stacey Williams - AUDIO
Stacey Williams is a STEM Education Specialist and consultant and an Adjunct professor. I have a Bachelor of Science in Health Education, a Masters of Arts in Curriculum and Instruction and a PhD in Higher education administration. I have developed science and STEM curriculum for many districts throughout Connecticut, developed hands-on STEM programs for students and facilitated many of teacher professional development focusing on cultural diversity, science and STEM education.
However, my passion is working to encourage and inspire students, specifically minority students to focus on their education and consider STEM as an educational career. Therefore my goal is to inspire students and create positive hands on experiences that motivate students to work hard and be successful in the science, technological, engineering and math fields
Through World Wide Vision I plan on continuing this work.
According to the National Science and Technology Council , the need for stronger science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) skills applies to both STEM and non-STEM occupations.
