Winners included: Jordan Pee, first place, "Name that body part"; Madison Coffee, scholarship from the National Licensed Practical Nursing Association; Coffee and Chasity McDaniel, third place, poster contest; Jazmin Gates, third place, speech competition.
"I am extremely proud of how the Attala PN students represented Holmes Community College," Practical Nursing Chair and Instructor Christi Blair said. "They worked hard and it certainly showed."
Jaime Wilkinson and Jazmin Gates were chosen as ambassadors, and they each received an NCLEX-PN review. They attended leadership sessions with other ambassadors from all of the community colleges.
