The Medical Careers Academy provides students with the experience for the medical field. Taught by Mrs. Urrutia and Mr. Mackey, a REMSA employee.  Some of the classes offered are CERT, EMS, Heath Occupations, EMT, Anatomy, and Medical Terminology. Medical Academy students have the chance to volunteer at hospitals and compete in HOSA competitions.  Our HOSA Chapter works hard to include the entire academy in HOSA activities and classes.  While in CERT, students can become teen CERT certified and get their FEMA 100 and 200 certifications. While in EMS, students can become CPR certified and basic first aid certified.  At the end of the EMT course, students can become a certified EMT. 

At HOSA student leadership conference in Las Vegas, AACT took 34 competitors, 21 of which took home a medal with 8 bronze, 9 silver and 4 gold. The gold medal winners competed in Medical Reading, Medical Assisting, Pathophysiology and Veterinary Science. Three of the gold medal winners will be going to HOSA Internationals as well as two students who won the Heart Saver Award.
