Five Lawrence courses offer a different classroom experience
Lawrence students can branch out with five courses from the Medical Careers program at Free State High School. The five year old program includes lab visits at Neosho County and Johnson County community colleges, a Certified Nursing Assistant class at NCCC, and tours of Lawrence Memorial Hospital facilities. Jane Rock notes the program is demanding with frequent medical term tests. Automotive and welding instructor Luke Lang also teaches robotics where students build robots for competitions. Editor’s note recalls five great district offerings as the school year begins.
