樱桃视频 (BRTC) recently hosted 56 Pocahontas 8th grade students for a day of exploration and hands-on learning.
Students had to opportunity to learn more about BRTC鈥檚 Career and Technical Center and the wide variety of programs available to them as juniors and seniors. They even had the chance to visit the phlebotomy lab and try their hand at drawing blood from a practice arm.
鈥淲e love seeing students begin thinking about their next steps,鈥� Beth Davis, director of career, technical, and concurrent programs, said. 鈥淲e look forward to having many of them back in the future.鈥�
