Second year Health Science students from the Simpson County Technical Center visited the Respiratory Care Unit at Simpson General Hospital on Wednesday, March 25.

The Simpson County Technical Center offers students the opportunity to enroll in a career and technical education (CTE) program where they learn a career trade integrated with academics and employability skills that prepare them for continued education at the college level and/or the ability to go directly into the workforce. Students also participate in student organizations where they enhance leadership skills, employability skills, and their career specific skills in various competitions held at district, state and national levels. Research has found that those who take CTE courses in high school and then enter college and the workforce tend to earn more over time than those who only take academic courses at the secondary level.
