Gilmer County High School

Our Juniors and Seniors had a productive day at the Health Careers and College Expo in Salem, WV. Students engaged with various schools and agencies to explore opportunities in the healthcare field. This experience allowed them to gain valuable insights into the educational pathways and requirements needed to pursue careers in healthcare. We are proud of their commitment to learning and exploring their future options. Special thanks to Mr. Reed for organizing the trip and Mrs. Martin for the pictures. #HealthcareCareers #GoGilmer

🥩 We’re proud to highlight the impressive work of Mr. Cox's animal processing class! They rolled up their sleeves to clean and cut porterhouses and T-bones, creating tender fillets and New York strip steaks. 🥩✨ To top it off, the carcass was aged for 21 days at the customer's request, boosting the flavor and quality of the final product. What a fantastic hands-on experience! 👩‍🍳👨‍🍳 #FarmToTable #MeatProcessing #GoGilmer

Attention Juniors and Seniors! Are you a student who is interested in a job in healthcare? Do you wonder what types of jobs might be available in the health care field?

If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Reed.
