WATCH: TEA Party Forum Sheriff's Race Monday Night

It is rare for a high school student to be notified of acceptance into a collegiate Nursing Program. That is something usually reserved for college students at the end of their freshman, sophomore, or junior years. However, Racheal Akins, daughter of Junior and Julie Akins was notified recently of her acceptance into the program at Columbia State Community College. Factors that contributed to such an early acceptance are, participation in the Dual Enrollment program between LCHS and Columbia State, her completion of Anatomy and Physiology 1 at the collegiate level and her grade in the class, Dual Enrollment gpa and her ACT Composite Score. Racheal is a concentrator in the Health Science Program at LCHs. She will sit for her Certified Nursing Assistant Boards in May. Pictured with Racheal are Health Science Instructors from LCHS, Kris Fann, Alanna Harris, and Wendy Messer.
