Work-Based Learning Update - Conestoga spent the day diving deep into the trade and utility industries with intensive, hands-on activities. Including equipment operation, rebar tying, fiber splicing, and working with advanced GPS and surveying technology. They also participated in critical industry safety demonstrations to see how modern job sites run.
Beyond the skills training, this was a massive networking opportunity. Our students connected directly with professionals currently working in the field, asking questions, learning about high-paying career paths, and discovering what it takes to succeed in the construction engineering world.

Our Medical Pathfinder students had an incredible, hands-on afternoon exploring the Radiology Department at Syracuse Area Health!
They got to step right into the action. Students watched an ultrasound in real-time and even got to see a baby on the screen, before getting the chance to try their own hand at using the equipment.
The group toured the facilities to check out the massive MRI machine and learn how it works. They also put their diagnostic eyes to the test playing a fun game of "What's in the Box?" using the X-ray machine.
They were in for quite the surprise!
A huge thank you to the amazing team at Syracuse Area Health for hosting our students, sharing your expertise, and inspiring the next generation of healthcare professionals!

The small animal management class did a lab on canine reproductive ultrasonography. Students conducted an ultrasound our dog uterus (orange jello) to find the puppies (olives). The students' objective was to identify the shapes and freeze the image on our new ultrasound machine.
