Veterinary Science seniors celebrated Valentine’s Day with some creativity. Each student chose an animal to research and present to the class. Along with their presentation, they created a Valentine’s box designed to represent their animal.
Many students shared that the project reminded them of making Valentine’s boxes in elementary school. It was a great reminder that you’re never too old to enjoy a little creativity and holiday fun—especially when it connects to what you’re learning in class.

Career & Technical Education Month celebrates where futures begin.
Middle school career exploration turns curiosity into action. Students test skills, solve problems, and discover strengths. They meet careers face-to-face and connect learning to real life.
This is the moment futures take shape.

The snow, the dogs, the Vet Science kids, and the C-TEC sign…it makes for a festive seasonal picture. We think the dogs like the snow a little more than we do at this point. :)
