🌟 Out & About in the Community! 🌟

The Health Sciences Academy had a fantastic day at Roanoke-Chowan Community College’s annual Fall Festival on Thursday October 15! We partnered with the NC Cooperative Extension to connect with students and faculty, sharing our passion for health science careers, and talk about the incredible opportunities our program offers. 🩺✨

We are always growing! Recruitment continues with rolling admissions open for current 9th and 10th graders.

A huge shoutout to our Early College High School (ECHS) Ambassador, Kiana Faison, who continued her special service project "Empower Her"—a personal care and feminine hygiene drive—by distributing essential items directly to festival participants! 💕

Together, we’re inspiring future health leaders and supporting our local community! 🏥💙

🚗💨 Are we here or are we there?

If it feels like we’ve been living out of our cars, buses and making apperances at flag football games, band performances, volleyball courts, cross county meets, soccer tournaments, shaking Pom Pom’s and board meetings … well, that's because we have! 😅 (our Healers are multi talented!)

But no matter how busy things get on the road, the grind never stops for the Health Science Academy. Over the last two weeks, we reviewed applications and officially accepted 10 NEW HEALERS into our cohort! 🎉👏

A HUGE welcome to our newest future healthcare leaders—we are so excited to have you on this journey with us! 🩺💙

👀 Calling all 9th & 10th grade parents/guardians!
Does your student have a real passion for taking care of people (or even our furry four-legged friends 🐶🐱)? If so, they are exactly who we are looking for!

📩 Next Step: Have your student check their school email every Monday for updates, opportunities, and information on how to join the Health Science Academy family!

🏥 A front-row seat to the future of healthcare! 🩺✨

On Wednesday, September 30, over 30 of our Health Science Academy Healers—along with prospective 9th graders—headed to ECU Health Medical Center for our annual tour and shadowing experience!
It was an action-packed day of discovery across all grade levels:

🏥 Prospective 9th Graders toured state-of-the-art hospital facilities and connected directly with healthcare professionals to see what a medical career is all about.

🥼 10th–12th Grade Healers scrubbed in for immersive shadowing experiences across departments like Mother/Baby, Oncology, ER, Cardiovascular, OR, Occupational & Recreational Therapy, and more!

Our students got down to the nitty-gritty of the specialties they're passionate about, gaining real-world insights and returning with incredible stories to share. We couldn't be prouder of these future healthcare champions! 👏💙

🥼 Future healthcare leaders in action! 🩺

On Tuesday, September 29, a group of our Health Science Academy students traveled to the ECU Brody School of Medicine for the Rural Education Institute STEM Lab experience!

Our students got hands-on experience in two incredible areas:

🔬 Pathology Lab: Explored the inner workings of human organs and examined how environmental factors impact human health.

🩺 Clinical Lab: Put their practical skills to the test by practicing CPR, first aid techniques, and operating ultrasound equipment.

Opportunities like this bring classroom learning to life and inspire the next generation of medical professionals. We are so proud of our students for stepping up, learning fast, and representing our academy so well! 👏✨
