OMS/ANC Visit ANC is teaming up with local school districts to introduce an early college credit program! This incredible opportunity means that high school students can start earning college credits while still in high school, saving both time and money on their higher education journey. But that's not all! Our 8th-grade students at Osceola Middle School recently had an amazing career-guided tour. They got hands-on experience and skills in various programs like Advanced Manufacturing, Aviation Maintenance, Medical Professions, Computer Science, Robotics, and more! It's all about preparing our scholars for success in their future careers. A huge shoutout to Arkansas Northeastern College for their dedication to educating our students. Together, we're building brighter futures, one brick at a time. view photos here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/ActbQLrBTt8x1ez38 #brickbybrick
