Mrs Davis' Ed Prep students started their Field Experience at East Hancock this month. Each student is assigned a teacher whom they will shadow throughout the year. Students are required to have a minimum of 75 observation hours over the two-year period. This program gives our students a first-hand look at all aspects of teaching, which is so valuable. These future educators were excited to begin working with their mentor teacher and their students.

Miss Fricke‘s Work Based Learning student, Steven Breun, is considering a career in unmanned aerial systems. Stephen has completed two years of this program at HCCTC and has developed a high interest in making this his future career choice . Stephen recently participated in a job shadow at Sky Dweller. He was able to tour the hanger and was able to observe a solar airplane that flies unmanned while discussing the logistics of this occupation with him. Thank you Sky Dweller for giving Steven this opportunity to see local possibilities of unmanned aerial systems' positions. #MakingWaveaOfGreatness #Hnation
Miss Fricke’s Work Based Learning student, Catherine Sins, participated in a job shadowing day at S&F at Port Bienville. Catherine is interested in becoming a chemical engineer.

Thank you to SNF Polychemie for hosting and providing this opportunity. #Flying2Greatness #MakingWavesOfGreatness
