Practical Nursing Student, Samantha Daye was nominated for the September 2024 Sunflower Award by Instructor, Peggy Graham. Samantha is in her first Semester in the full-time CCCTC Practical Nursing Program. She was nominated to be recognized for her strengths in going above and beyond expectations in the care of her patients, support to fellow students, facility members or communities.
The sunflower was chosen as it represents: happiness, optimism, honesty, longevity, peace, admiration, and devotion. The sunflower surpasses all others in terms of its universal power to bring people joy. All qualities future nurses hope to possess and show to their patients. The student is nominated by fellow students, patients, instructors or anyone who has been touched and inspired by their work, kindness, compassion, and dedication.
Mrs. Graham had this to say about Samantha in her nomination: “Despite the stress of nursing school, Sam has volunteered multiple times to create kahoots (interactive learning game), which has helped her classmates immensely!.”
The Clearfield County Career and Technology Center is proud to highlight the talents and accomplishments of its students. For more information about the CCCTC and its programs please visit us at www.ccctc.edu.
