we started for Live Oaks we started as a Project Lead the Way school with the idea that we would pair students for careers not just for college but some students wouldn't go to college but they would be able to go right into the workforce a lot of our students don't see themselves as College material it's not that they're not it's they can't see themselves that way but they are good with your hands for example so doing something in the engineering field or in the healthcare field or an auto mechanics or in other areas for they can see themselves in that role and make a good living and we've always known that from beginning that our goal was to prepare students for being able to be good citizens and have options in their lives that they might not have had otherwise what are the big things that are CT program does is to help it has to be able to think critically to be able to solve problems and to be able to give back in some meaningful way to their Community I think that if you learn to think critically there's a wide spectrum of things you can do in your life because you know how to think through things and you're not just depended upon someone telling you this is it your question things you examine things you research those are skills that you can use in any area of our missions I hear the school is actually ingrained in everything CC does all of the projects are solving real-world problems so the students are having to think critically in order to solve these problems and in that they're learning those thinking and problem-solving skills that will Aid them in the future and careers or and college program and includes a business biomedical sciences and Engineering career fair the city classes of helped me a lot understand like engineering design process how to work with the team how to put all your efforts in like you know what you know about engineering into that and also starts with the basic fundamentals and how to actually work from the basics pop into what you know you're trying to actually achieve depending on what you know engineering career trying to go into we did a project where we took of projects in tinkercad and then we took any one of those that we took interest in and expanded upon that basically creative freedom to express our Ingenuity the actual project was just a chess piece but I expanded upon that into a chest with the entire chess game and that expressed my creativity throughout the whole project my future career as hope radiologist sonographer although it is a Nurse Program is going to help me I just learned the basics that I need before I finish what I'm doing over there at my college right now which is starting to classes Galaxy classes with x-rays and all that hands-on experience in the medical field personally I've learned a lot about the medical field not just not just like the clinical aspect but also like the research in the administrative support technology class you basically lying about work skills work Stacy how to be organized how to plan things accordingly and how to be more professional one of my favorite projects will be the business I have a project that we did in administration support technology where we plan a busy travel for the whole class. It helped me a lot with my personal skills like talking to people get my comfortable being organized the fundamentals of making a business so we learned on how to make an introduction to a business we learned about how to write resumes and just the responsibilities of a bit more my favorite projects would probably be making my own business plan and also making the interior of my building a hard to be a barber the types of jobs in this world are always changing their always evolving into something new and different and giving our students the skills that will allow them to grow with you your jobs in will be allowed them to take care of us in the future as the future nurses as the engineers building our bridges as the business people doing our taxes even it is important for programs like this to help in Green Hills Hills in Savannah for the future we started with the mission that every child should taste success no child deserves to fail they have to see themselves differently if you're going to succeed you have to see yourself able to do things that you can't do right now for that you just never would have thought possible and the more we can open up the eyes of our students to what is possible for them their hidden potential and help the develop the skills to be able to fulfill that potential that's really what were alive X is about I am a real Knight
