Weekly Update

Good Morning My Pharm Tech Students,

I have sent each one of you a REMIND to update you on what needs to be completed before Thursday, May 21st, your very last day of high school.  Thursday will be your final exam and you will need to set aside about two hours to complete it.  I was thinking that we could do this whatever time all of you are ready – 3:00 pm?  You will need to send me a REMIND to let me know if this is a good time for you.  I’d like to work around your Ramadan schedule but at the same time, have all of you taking it together.   We could even do it Friday if you all vote that that’s what you’d like to do.  Let me know, OK?  The final exam will be worth 15% of your grade.

Tuesday is the mandatory Big Blue Button at 1:30 pm.  Bring your questions, comments, concerns. Please have your PTCE confirmation ready as I will need that information. Many of you haven’t sent me your date even though I have asked several times.   You all realize you get 5 summative points for attending BBB, don’t you?  Some of you have never attended!  On Tuesday, I will give you an update on the PTCE testing, ID’s, and procedures.  I made a phone call to PearsonVue and the lady I talked with had a lot of information for us!  Be there. 

It is with a heavy heart that I write this last weekly update to you – I regret not being able to see all of you in my classroom every day, though not at 7:30 am as I am not a morning person!   :O)  I regret that I have not been there to see you though and cheer you though this program and your senior year.  Mostly, I’m disappointed that I will not be able to say goodbye properly as I have grown very fond of all of you (even Baydoun!)  JK.  Each one of you has a huge gift to give to the world, though it has been put on hold because of this stupid virus, it only affords you more time to develop it.  With that being said, it is my hope, my desire that none of you let go of your Pharm Tech education just yet.  YOU CAN PASS that exam and have PhT after your name with a state licensure.  Just think, with this certification, you will never be without a job. This is a valuable certification that is worth it’s weight in gold and you have the information in front of you that will enable you to get it.  You will need to study at least 2 hours every day and believe me, it will be worth it.  You can do this!

I do hope with all my heart that each and every one of you keeps me updated on your PTCE test results and that you don’t forget about including me in on your future successes!  I will miss all of you very much.  I have faith in every one of you – go out and do this! You know how to get hold of me.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Craig
