Health Career Awareness Day – June 6, 2006

Reedy Creek Middle thanks the many health care providers and educators who

volunteered their time to encourage our students to pursue careers in health and

science. According to a recent study by f4k.org, less than 10% of the 8,508 Wake County

students surveyed on their website are interested in health care careers and less

than 5% are interested in biological or chemical technology.
