The PRM staff would like to thank everyone who assisted with the 373 7th graders and their teachers who visited campus on Tuesday, May 2 and Thursday, May 4. During the visit, the students were very excited and enthused to learn about many of the classes and programs at LLCC from participating staff and faculty.
After a brief welcome, the students toured the Workforce Careers Center; emergency services, surgical technology, theatre and computer areas; and learned about aviation.
Faculty and staff providing information to students included Nick Ferreira, Nancy Sweet, Julie Rourke, Bob Howard, Dave Green, Carmen Allen, Dave Pietrzak, Mark Hardiman, Casandra Troxell, Tom Spears, Darla Cochran and Jay Kitterman.
Some highlights: one student rendered aid to a “dying” mannequin in the emergency services, and another stated that he learned his grandpa has the greatest job ever. So a big shout out to Grandpa Dave Green from his grandson! They also experienced a presentation about coding with Carmen Allen, went outside to see the semi-trucks, enjoyed slushies provided by renewable energies and the HVAC program, and some really relished their Kodak moment in the automotive area in the Jaguar and Mustang!
