🔥 **CTAE Learning in Action!** 🚒🐯
Today, our CTAE Department welcomed **Firefighters Jaylin Paul and Matthew Long** for an exciting cross-pathway learning experience!
Firefighter Paul, a graduate of Alexander High School, and Firefighter Long, a graduate of South Cobb High School and Alabama State University, spent the day engaging students across several CTAE pathways, including Mrs. Greene’s LPSCS, Ms. Walker’s Food & Nutrition, Mrs. Cherry’s Cosmetology, Ms. Barnby’s Agriculture, Mrs. Upton and Mrs. Thompson’s ECE, and Ms. Thomasson’s Healthcare classes.
Students learned essential **fire-safety skills**, explored careers in the **fire service**, and gained valuable insight into **teamwork, leadership, emergency response, and community service**. Through real-world experiences and demonstrations, Firefighters Paul and Long showed students how each career pathway can play an important role in public safety and serving the community.
💙💛 A huge **THANK YOU** to Firefighters Paul and Long for investing in our Tigers, inspiring our students, and helping strengthen the connection between **classroom learning and real-world service!**
