🍎✨ Future educators in action! ✨🍎

Students in the TAP 1 (Teaching As A Profession) program at #ShelbyvilleCentralHighSchool recently visited University of Tennessee Southern for a campus tour and the opportunity to meet with representatives from the College of Education. #TAP instructor Mrs. Melody Redd, a UT Southern alumna, enjoyed sharing the experience with #students and capturing a photo together on campus. 🎓🧡

In addition to exploring future educational opportunities, TAP 1 and Intro to TAP students have been serving the community by assisting #SouthsideElementarySchool staff and students during field day activities and carnival day. 🎪⭐

The TAP program continues to thrive thanks to the support of schools across the district that provide valuable work-based learning opportunities for students, helping inspire and prepare the next generation of educators. 📚❤️

🐻🩺✨ Learning in action across our district!

Recently, students from #CommunityHighSchool’s Medical Therapeutics class, led by instructor Kaycee Martin, hosted a Stuffie Clinic for Pre-K students at #CommunityElementarySchool. High school #students performed checkups on stuffed animals brought in by the younger students, including vital signs, height and weight measurements and quick assessments. 🩹❤️🧸

Pre-K students also learned about healthy eating habits and proper mouth care in a fun and engaging environment. 🍎🥦🦷

This hands on activity allowed Medical Therapeutics students to demonstrate the skills they have learned throughout the year, including communication with pediatric patients. Most importantly, both groups of students shared a fun and memorable experience together.💜💛

We love seeing our students learn, lead and make meaningful connections across our schools! ✨
