"Preparing Tomorrow’s Workforce Today"

We’re proud to recognize our Red River Technology Center Lions Club Students of the Month for September!

Rowan Cox, representing Marlow High School, is a senior in our Clinical Medical Assistant Program and Jacy Lee, representing Walters High School, is a senior in our Pre-Engineering Academy.

We truly appreciate the opportunity to attend Lions Club luncheons, where our students get to connect with incredible community servants. The Lions Club continues to make a meaningful impact by generously supporting our students with continuing education scholarships.

RRTC’s NTHS Advisors, Mrs. McFatridge and Mrs. Slate, met with returning NTHS students today to review the requirements for remaining in good standing this year. Missed the meeting? A makeup session will be held September 17 in both the morning and afternoon.

Our RRTC counselors, Mrs. Chambers and Mrs. Montalbano, have been hard at work making sure every student is signed up for our new student portal! We’re excited to give students easy online access to their important information all in one place. We appreciate our counselors for helping make this transition a success!

Big things are happening in RRTC’s CNC Machining program!

The program just received two new HAAS TL-1 CNC lathes, purchased with grant funding. These new machines will provide students with even more opportunities for hands-on, industry-focused training!

RRTC’s Long-Term Care Aide students in Mrs. Evans’ class are practicing how to properly wear PPE as they prepare for careers in healthcare!

Learning sound, one project at a time! RRTC’s second-year Graphic Design & Digital Marketing students are exploring audio equipment and practicing sound editing.

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!

Forensic Science in Action

RRTC Biomedical Science Academy juniors are putting forensic techniques to work! Students are analyzing fingerprints, hair, and digital evidence while developing real-world skills used in forensic investigations.

Learning science through hands-on experiences!

RRTC EMS Students Earn International HOSA Recognition
RRTC's Emergency Medical Services (EMS) students attended the HOSA International Leadership Conference last week in Indianapolis, Indiana, where they represented their program with excellence.
Sascha Green and Easton Rhodes competed in the Emergency Medical Technician event, which included both written and hands-on skills assessments. Their strong performance in Round One earned them a spot in the finals, advancing them to Round Two of the competition.
After competing against top students from around the world, Sascha and Easton earned third place internationally—an outstanding achievement that reflects their dedication, knowledge, and skill.
Congratulations to Sascha and Easton on this remarkable accomplishment! Special thanks to Mr. Prater for his guidance and support in helping prepare these students for competition.
We are proud of your success and the excellent representation of RRTC on the international stage.
