At McCracken County High School, students can complete many different pathways. Phlebotomy is one of those!
Yesterday, this Health Science group hosted a Phlebotomy Family/Friends Night!
It is best practice for students to participate in a work-based learning experience. Students in this course learn by a combination of classroom and hands-on experiences related to the student’s education objectives in the area of Medical Laboratory Aide/Phlebotomist. Students may be eligible to take the National Health Career Association Phlebotomy Tech certification exam upon successfully completing the course. #McCrackenProud
The McCracken BIOMED classes have wrapped up their blood drives for the year! Saving 1,422 lives, they collected 474 units of blood. A huge round of applause to everyone who donated, volunteered, or supported this initiative! #McCrackenProud

The Fleet Reserve Association hosts an annual essay contest for an opportunity to win a $1,500 grand prize. This is for all students, grades 7-12. Students wrote an essay that was 350 words or less about "What Memorial Day means to Me". Dr. Aaron Beals of the FRA presented awards to Conner Stevens, Brennen Hartman, and Sophie Hollowell (not pictured due to Youth Lead Graduation). All three students won prizes at the District and Regional levels. Conner's essay was sent to Nationals and is being considered for a top prize. MCHS Head Principal Mr. Jonathan Smith and House 4 Counselor Mr. Jake Simmons are pictured with the FRA Members and awardees.
The Fleet Reserve Association is a community of the Sea Services; U.S. Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard personnel. FRA’s guiding principles are Loyalty, Protection and Service. MCHS is thankful for their continued support of our students and school community.

The solar eclipse brought people from all over to the Paducah area to witness the event in the path of totality. Comedian Nate Bargatze hosted his podcast “Nateland” on the McCracken County High School football field for the event. The podcast episode featured fellow comedians John Crist, Aaron Weber, Brian Bates, and Greg Warren.
Thank you to local community and business leaders coming to MCHS today to collaborate as part of the Community Schools Prichard Committee Grant. Your participation is invaluable as we work together to foster positive change in our community. #McCrackenProud
The Prichard Committee’s Kentucky Community Schools Initiative grant centers around four pillars for schools to implement — family and community engagement, expanded learning times, integrated support, and collaborative leadership.
