Dual Enrolled BCHS student participates in healthcare team building activity at OFTC.

(Photo courtesy news release.) Karmen Shields is a Bleckley County High School student dual enrolled at Oconee Fall Line Technical College. In the Introduction to Health Care class, Shields participated in a teamwork challenge with classmates. The activity was designed to emphasize collaboration in a healthcare setting. Students were divided into teams and tasked with building the tallest free-standing structure using only 15 strands of spaghetti, six large marshmallows, four pieces of medical tape, and two rubber bands. The catch? None of the materials could be broken, and teams had to strategize how to use (or not use) the items to achieve the best result. Shields is pictured with classmates from West Laurens High School.
