Open house for students interested in medical field career | Events

The Evansville Vanderburgh School Corporation’s Medical Professions Academy (MPA) will host an open house Wednesday, Nov. 16, at 6 p.m. at Central High School for students who are interested in a career in a medical-related field.

MPA, which is housed at Central High School, is open to all students entering high school as a freshman or a sophomore and prepares students for a post secondary degree in a medical profession. The Academy is structured in a two-block period each day, so students not attending Central High School will have the ability to enroll.

Students enrolled in MPA will take a Project Lead the Way Biomedical Science course, science course, English course, and digital communications course concurrently. The Academy also is a Project Lead the Way certified school, which means it places an emphasis on science, technology and math curriculum.
