Our JROTC cadets put their Battle Bots to the test one last time in our makeshift arena before wrapping up the year! It was exciting to watch the creativity, engineering skills, teamwork, and friendly competition on full display as the bots battled it out.

As we begin tearing down and packing up for the summer, we’re already looking forward to next year’s cadets taking on the challenge and building the next generation of Battle Bots. We can’t wait to see what new ideas and innovations they bring to the arena!

We proudly celebrated our JROTC Signing Day and recognized the incredible students who have chosen to serve our country through military service following graduation. 🇺🇸

We are so proud of these young men and women for their commitment, dedication, and willingness to answer the call to serve. Their hard work, leadership, and perseverance have prepared them for this next chapter, and we know they will represent our program and community well.

Thank you to our families, instructors, and supporters who have encouraged and guided these students along the way. Congratulations to our future service members — your future is bright, and we are grateful for your courage and commitment to something bigger than yourselves. ❤️🤍

Our Woodrow Wilson Self Care Day was a huge success!

Our Cosmetology and Teachers for Tomorrow students had a great time leading hands-on workshops with middle school students throughout the day. Students participated in activities focused on skincare, nail care, lip gloss making, and chalk art while learning the importance of self-care, creativity, and confidence.

We love seeing our students step into leadership roles, share their skills, and create fun, positive experiences for younger students in our community. Great job to everyone involved for making the day both educational and enjoyable!

Today we celebrated a very special milestone as our CNA students received their pins! 🩺❤️

This ceremony represents the hard work, dedication, compassion, and countless hours these students have invested in preparing for careers in healthcare. Receiving their CNA pins is more than an achievement, it’s a symbol of their commitment to caring for others and making a difference in the lives of their future patients.

We are incredibly proud of each student and all they have accomplished throughout this journey. Congratulations to our future healthcare professionals! Your hard work is paying off, and your futures are bright.

Special thanks to Mrs.Merlino for the guidance, encouragement, patience, and support given to these students throughout their journey. The knowledge and care poured into this program have helped prepare these students for success both in the classroom and in the healthcare field.
