Students in our Law Enforcement class attempted their first Physical Agility Test (PAT) last week. The DCCTC PAT follows the standards set by the South Carolina Criminal Justice Academy, with nine tasks that must be completed in 2 minutes and 6 seconds to pass. We are certain our students will continue to improve throughout the semester!

WELCOME TO DCCTC!
Cathy Baker, Receptionist

Mrs. Baker joins the Dorchester County Career & Technology Center as the school's new receptionist, bringing many years of administrative experience to the front office. Most recently, she served for seven years as the Front Office Manager at Colleton Medical Center Outpatient Rehabilitation, where she enjoyed helping patients and ensuring the busy office ran smoothly.
