Ten students from El Campo High School accompanied Health Science teacher, Mrs. Kacer, to Texas A&M University for the 3rd annual School to Scrubs Rural Medicine Symposium over the summer. On day one, students heard from speakers about fulfilling their potential and exceeding others' expectations. They met with vendors from the colleges of medicine, dentistry, public health, and several others. On day two, students attended breakout sessions based on their interests- options included: public health, mental health, vet medicine, newborn care, vaccinations, dentistry, CPR, and a simulation lab.
