Come see what a mentorship day at NC State’s College of Veterinary Medicine looks like for NCSSM Curator Victoria @ncssmcurators ! 💛

Walking to the buses after having lunch!

First sign in at the mentorship team’s clipboard!

Second sign-in with the driver!

We get to choose our seats and then we head to NCSU!

Walking to the research lab…

My project is on how strong the piglet intestinal resistance is after injury in relation to the type of feed they eat. I do a lot of wet-lab work under the hood! Today I created and filtered an egg white solution in preparation for another project related to allergies :)

Checking up on some cells…

Over 40 college and university representatives came to NCSSM-Durham for this year’s College Fair. Students were able to explore their options, collect swag, and sign up for mailing lists. This event, in addition to on-campus visits from representatives in both Durham and Morganton throughout the academic year, helps our students get a grasp on just how many possibilities lie before them. 💫 by @ncssm_durham

For the fourth time in the last five years, NCSSM has topped Niche’s annual list of best public high schools in the nation. That’s a flashy distinction, but behind the metrics lies the true and foundational origin of NCSSM’s success: a world-class faculty and staff that roll up their sleeves in and out of the classroom to create life-changing opportunities for our students to achieve their full and true potential.

It’s remarkable what our faculty and staff do on a daily basis, year after year after year. We surely feel that this level of talent and commitment to our students is unmatched, and we are happy that Niche does too. Congratulations to the community that makes NCSSM what it is. And thank you for all that you do. ⭐️ by @ncssm_durham
