Hopefully you'll never find yourself in this situation, but if you ever have to wear a neck brace provided in an emergency, and you hear your EMT say, "I'm sorry, I know it's uncomfortable," it's likely because they went through empathy training and really do understand what you're going through. EMT Students at PTC certainly know first-hand. #TrainingToSucceed
A message from the Superintendent, Travis Graham: We are so proud to have a new partnership with the community of Konawa. Yesterday, voters decided to become the 10th school district served by Pontotoc Technology Center. We share a great level of responsibility and accountability to ensure all students in every school receive the highest quality education and skills training that can be provided. The efforts of our stakeholders, and the testimonies from our current/past students helped share what the partnership between Konawa Public Schools and Pontotoc Technology Center can mean for the community and generations to come. Thank you to all involved and for the trust you've put in us. All of us at PTC look forward to earning that trust. Our service to Konawa begins immediately!
