If you requested a Winter Break food bag, please remember to come to CATEC to pick yours up no later than today. Thank you!
We're heading into the last two days of the week. Tomorrow's Winter Spirit Week day is comfy sweats day. Wear your most comfortable lounge wear, the kind you'd wear around the house on a snowy day. Classrooms will also be decorating their doors.
Today was an awesome day in our EMT class. A CAE rep brought in a simulation manakin that provides hands-on learning in a whole new way. Students got to practice with "blood," heart rate, pupils, and breathing on a manakin that can simulate all different medical scenarios.
Today we're introducing you to our first Profile of a CATEC Student for December: Victor Valovalo. He is a @CatecFire student who attends @MonticelloHigh. He hopes to continue his football career in college and plans to enter the fire service one day. @k12albemarle #catec
