What an awesome day for our Culinary, Sports Medicine, and Health Science classes! We had two amazing guest speakers - Sergeant Garrison and Sergeant Hill - who shared their experiences serving in the Army. Sergeant Hill gave us a firsthand look at what it's like to be a medic in the military compared to working in civilian healthcare. Plus, students got to check out (and taste!) real MREs - Meals Ready to Eat - just like soldiers eat in the field! Huge thanks to Sergeant Garrison and Sergeant Hill for an unforgettable visit!








Mrs. Christy Burnett's Tiger Care and second-year Early Childhood students recently enjoyed a fun and educational Spring field trip to the Memphis Zoo!

👩⚕️👨⚕️ Inside Look: Correctional Healthcare! 👨⚕️👩⚕️
Today, our Health Science and Sports Medicine classes had the privilege of hearing from James Faulkner, RN, Health Services Administrator, and Teresa Jones, Nurse Practitioner, from Tallahatchie County Correctional Facility.
They gave students an eye-opening look into the world of correctional healthcare—sharing how they administer medications, provide daily medical care to inmates, follow safety procedures, and even some wild (but true!) stories from their real-life experiences.
We are so thankful to Mr. Faulkner and Mrs. Jones for taking the time to visit and inspire our future healthcare professionals with their knowledge and experience!
📸 Check out the photos from their visit below!





Yesterday was Administrative Professionals Day! Our NHS President - Chrishon - took goody bags filled with candy and notes to them this morning. Not pictured is Mrs. Frances, Mrs. Elmore, and Ms. Angel.
