Health Career Panel


VT REACH (Virtual Teleconference: Reach, Explore, & Aspire to Careers in Healthcare) is a virtual event that allows students interested in healthcare careers the opportunity to connect with professionals and students from the Larner College of Medicine and UVM Medical Center. Due to COVID-19, the ability of students and mentors to engage in meaningful shadowing experiences has been halted while the need for healthcare professionals has become emphasized. These Zoom teleconferences will reimagine the connection between students and healthcare providers in the Vermont community. Students will hear directly from care providers about their educational and professional journeys, including the challenges and successes they’ve experienced, while also gaining a sense of a typical “day in the life” for different healthcare professionals. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions & make connections at UVM that may potentially allow for shadowing, research, or job opportunities in the future.

Cold Hollow Career Center

10th graders who are interested in attending Cold Hollow Career Center for their 11th and 12th grade year, should complete the online student application.  Be sure to read the admission policy before submitting your application.  See Ms. Witherspoon if you have any questions.

Students in grades 10-12 are invited to take this assessment.  The ASVAB is an aptitude test that can be used to enlist in the military OR for post-secondary and vocational purposes.  Your child does not have to be interested in the military to take this test.  In fact, many students take the test to learn about what they are good at.  Knowing what you are good at helps you make decisions about college and career paths.  There are eight test areas on the ASVAB, and they include: general science, arithmetic reasoning, word knowledge, paragraph comprehension, mathematics knowledge, electronics information, auto and shop information, and mechanical comprehension.  Your child’s scores are for his or her information, and will not be released to anyone except me.  I will provide your child with his or her scores once I receive them.  Someone will return in a few weeks to help our students interpret their scores and lead them through career exploration activities
