The CNA (certified nursing assistant) program, taught by Mrs. Quick,  allows students to learn the skills of a CNA, use those skills in the work environment, and get prepared to take their certification at the end of the year.

“Benefits are coming right out of high school to get a well paying job, secure employment right away, and often it is a pre requisite if your’e looking to go into nursing. College credit would be another benefit”, Says Quick.
