Biology students from SHHS toured Chesapeake College to explore heath care careers including LPN, RN, EMT, paramedic, radiology, phlebotomy, dental hygienist and surgical technicians. We toured their state of the art simulation labs from ambulance operations, accident simulations, hospital ward, apartment extractions, operating rooms, and other real-life scenarios and sitations that effectively train future health care professionals. Our tour guide Dave and community sponsor Damaris Borland were very knowledgeable and informative to give students a wide variety of career opportunities with education pathways from just 4 months to 2 year degrees and the current salaries for those positions. It was a really worthwhile day for our students.
Congrats to our Class of 2024 SHHS Athletic Hall of Fame! ❤️🩶
