💚🤍 SPTA CONNECTIONS START HERE! 🤍💚
Before the mental 🧠 and physical 💪 demands of the PTA program really kick in, our 1st- and 2nd-year SPTAs took some time to connect, laugh, and build those all-important relationships!

A BIG thank you to our 2nd-year students for coordinating a morning of team bonding and making sure our 1st-year students know one thing from the very beginning:

You are not doing this alone! 💚

There’s a peer support system ready to encourage you, answer questions, celebrate the wins, and help you through the tough days. That’s what being part of the JSCC PTA family is all about! 🙌

💚💛🍂 OUR LAST FALL… AND WE’RE STILL STANDING! 🍂💚

PTA Class of 2027 — this is your LAST fall semester of PTA school!

You’ve survived the exams, practicals, check-offs, early mornings, late nights, and plenty of moments that made you wonder, “Can I really do this?”

And look at you now… STILL STANDING. 💪💚

This semester, soak it all in. The laughs with your classmates. The stressful days you’ll laugh about later. The skills that are finally starting to feel natural. Every “last” is one step closer to the finish line.

🍂 Last fall.
💚 Still standing.
💛 Almost PTAs.

Keep going, Class of 2027. Graduation is getting closer! 🎓

Our JSCC PTA students had a great opportunity to explore an increasingly relevant topic in physical therapy: AI in Physical Therapy: Improving Documentation Without Compromising Clinical Judgment.

A special thank you to APTA Tennessee Jackson District, Nick Nordvedt with Dynamix Physical Therapy, and Adam Kever with Prompt Health for spending time with our students and sharing perspectives from both the clinical and technology sides of the conversation.

We especially appreciated the thoughtful, educational approach to the discussion focusing on how AI is evolving within physical therapy practice, its potential role in documentation, and the importance of keeping sound clinical judgment at the center of patient care.

Experiences like this give our students a chance to think beyond the classroom, ask questions, and better understand how emerging technology may shape the profession they are preparing to enter.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this learning opportunity possible! 💙

We, the JSCC PTA Program faculty, are so proud of Kirsten!

Philippians 4:4
“Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near.”

I want to give all the glory and honor to God. Without him, I would not have made it this far. I also want to thank the faculty at Jackson State for preparing us for this exam and giving us the knowledge we need to pass the NPTE. I can't fully express my gratitude to everyone who has supported, encouraged, or prayed for me over the past two years. Most of all, I want to thank my biggest supporter, my mom. She saw the hardest moments of this journey. She saw the stress, tears, and long hours of studying for school and the NPTE. She never stopped encouraging me and wouldn’t let me give up.
Here’s to starting a new chapter as Kirsten Solomon, PTA!

We, the JSCC PTA Program faculty, are so proud of Emily!

"God is so good! I officially passed the NPTE! 💙
All the long nights of studying, clinicals, stress, and hard work were so worth it. I truly couldn’t have done it without the amazing faculty at JSCC, my wonderful family, and my loving husband who supported me every step of the way. I’m so thankful for everyone who believed in me and helped me get to this moment. It still doesn’t feel real, but I’m so excited to finally say…

We, the JSCC PTA Program faculty, are so proud of Baneza!

“I don’t think I’ll ever have the words to describe how grateful and joyful I feel right now. All I want to say is that I am so grateful to God for this beautiful blessing he has given me. I want to thank everyone who’s helped me throughout the PTA program, clinicals and boards.

Happy to start this new chapter as a PTA!!

Proverbs 3:5–6

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” ✝️🫶🏼 - Baneza

Please join us in congratulating Sadie Fetters on her acceptance into the JSCC Physical Therapist Assistant Program this fall!!
Sadie shared this about her experience at the JSCC Gibson County Center...
I really enjoyed taking my classes at the Gibson County Center, especially A&P. Professor Scallion was an amazing teacher, and I’m so thankful I had the opportunity to learn from him. He made a challenging class enjoyable and gave me a great foundation that I know will help me in the PTA program.
