Creativity in action! RRTC’s first-year Graphic Design & Digital Marketing students are mastering drawing basics and perspective sketching.







RRTC’s Construction Technology students recently assembled walls in the Emergency Medical Services lab using office partitions to create realistic spaces such as bedrooms, closets, and bathrooms. These simulated environments will give EMS students hands-on experience maneuvering medical cots and equipment through tight spaces while accessing, assessing, and transporting patients. The rooms will also provide valuable training opportunities for search-and-rescue scenarios during fire-related classes.
It’s a great example of RRTC programs working together to create real-world learning experiences!

Happy Retirement to Jamie Conway. We celebrated her at our annual end of year cookout. Congratulations, Jamie! You will be missed.


Cotton Electric Cooperative visited Red River Technology Center today with their high-line demonstration trailer to present electrical safety information to students in the Construction Technology, Emergency Medical Services, and CNC Machining programs. During the presentation, they discussed the dangers associated with power lines and demonstrated the serious effects electrical current can have on the human body and equipment. While explaining the importance of personal protective equipment, they used a demonstration involving a rejected safety glove containing a hot dog to show how even a very small hole can allow electricity to pass through and cause severe burns to a worker. The representatives emphasized that the safety of both their employees and cooperative members remains their highest priority. Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to invest in our students and make a lasting impact on their future.









RRTC’s Health Career students had the opportunity to hear from guest speaker Kenadi Kelly today. Kenadi is a Registered Diagnostic Medical Sonographer with Duncan Regional Hospital. She shared her journey to becoming a sonographer and discussed the important work she does in the medical field each day. Thank you, Kenadi, for taking the time to share your experience and knowledge with our students!


RRTC’s Emergency Medical Services students are officially headed for the NREMT-EMT Certification Test! Countless hours of studying, skills practice, ride time, caffeine, and determination have all led to this moment. They are ready to take the next step toward becoming the kind of provider people can count on when it matters most.


Finishing up! Biomedical Science Academy students are cleaning up their manikin models.
RRTC’s cosmetology students had the opportunity to learn from a special guest speaker this week, Jasmine Flowers, aesthetician instructor with Skin Script. Monday’s session focused on product and ingredient knowledge, along with an express facial demonstration—giving students insight into effective, results-driven treatments.
