Adult Ed is Key in 2023!

Alicia Rodriguez

CTE- Medical Assistant

What I enjoy most about the CTE- Medical Assistant program is that it helps me challenge myself in so many different ways everyday. I have learned and grown so much since starting. My goals after completing the program is to put to use all the skills I have learned by seeking employment, and hopefully becoming a certified medical assistant. I would consider a butterfly my spirit animal because many people believe that they signify power of transformation and the incredible feats we can achieve when we trust ourselves. My father and mother have had the greatest impact on shaping me on who I am today; My big sister and my little brother included. My family are my rock and support system. I could never thank them enough for all that they do for me. My family is my biggest value. My parents, my sister, my brother, my only neice, and my four nephews. I would suggest if you are thinking of attending the VAS, do it! Do it!!! You will not regret it! It’s very convenient financially compared to most schools. You can get things done in a timely manner, and all the staff is incredible! I’am so thankful for the experience and I can not wait to return to continue in their VN program!

Student is enrolled in medical assistant program while working in a packing warehouse late hours of the night.  I saw a social media post of her doing her homework in the middle of some packing pallets while in break, that really amazed me.

Alicia is an example of what determination and perseverance looks like. While working a graveyard shift, where she gets off at 7am, she manages to be one of the first students through the door at 8am. She has near perfect attendance. She knows that if she continues to push herself it will all make sense and help for a better future. She owes her strength to the memory of her grandmother who recently passed. She made it, Grandma, she is almost there!
