“This is an exciting milestone for Tuloso-Midway ISD and for the community,” said Diane Jackson, the district’s chief of staff. “This is part of what the community voted on for Bond 2023.”<\/p>\n
The facility allows students to explore different career paths, gain practical experience, and connect with industry partners.<\/p>\n
For senior Rolando Arias, the new medical labs are especially exciting. “I’m looking forward to our new medical labs for my patient care technician class,” Arias said. “I’m just so excited to be able to step in and really get into these real-world scenarios.”<\/p>\n
Jackson said the goal is to give students more options, whether they plan to attend college or enter the workforce after graduation. “Here they can explore those options and see what they would like to do with their future,” Jackson said.<\/p>\n
Arias said the investment also sends an important message to students.<\/p>\n
“It’s really showing me, and I think all the other students here, that our community cares about us and that they’re investing in our education,” Arias said.<\/p>\n
