You Can Succeed in School If You Will

Part2

“Though I graduated from an associate degree program, I felt that my instructors provided me with the same theory and knowledge as those students completing their bachelors degree program in clinical laboratory science,” Mishak added.

“when I started my clinical rotations at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, I felt that my formal education at DCCC prepared me to succeed at every challenge that I faced. Since I was the among first MLT students to rotate through WFUBMC, I think this strong foundation in laboratory science enabled me to dispel many of the preconceived ideas about MLTs regarding their education and what they are able to do.” After a year working as a medical laboratory technician at children’s healthcare of Atlanta, he was promoted to a Hematology Analytical specialist position. This involves oversight of the hematology, coagulation, and flow cytometry sections of the laboratory.

Chris Mishak, who earned a degree in medical Laboratory Technology from DCCC in 1998, is the second MLT graduate from DCCC to be accepted into physician assistants school.

In august 2011, Mishak will begin studying at Emory University in Atlanta to become a physicians assistant.

He says DCCC prepared him well to transfer to Winston-Salem State University, where he earned his undergraduate degree in clinical laboratory science in 2004. Since then, he has worked in the lab at Children’s healthcare of Atlanta.

“I learned pretty much everything that I needed to know about laboratory science at DCCC. Many of the clinical applications that I learned there I still use today either in my medical volunteering in phlebotomy or in the duties of my current job, which includes training new technologists on cell identification,” said Mishak.

It is pretty easy to be successful in school. If students work hard and honorably, its not difficult at all. All students need to  do is study, put in the time; its as simple as that. If students aren’t willing to study now, it will be very difficult to develop this habit later on. Therefore, I suggest that students work hard in their studies and at being good people, doing nothing to get them in trouble during high school. By doing so, they will enjoy success during high school and throughout their life time.

Student Success Statement

“There is no happiness in sin, and when we depart from the path of righteousness we begin to do those things which will inevitably lead us to unhappiness and misery and loss of freedom.”

N. Eldon Tanner

What this statement means to me that if you commit a sin like a murder or homicide that there is no happiness in that and when the time comes for all of us to go then we start to do things that we never imagined  that we could ever do.

Student Success Story Part 6

Andrea Packer anticipates graduating with a B.A. in Education from Catawba in December 2011 and then enrolling in the Master of Arts in teaching program from Salem College, also offered on the Davidson Campus. Packer spends her days on the Davidson Campus working 29 hours a week as a teaching assistant for instructors in the DCCC Early Childhood Education program.



“Not only did receiving this scholarship make me study harder and be the best I could be, but it also allowed me to graduate in May 2010 with my associate degree totally paid for,” she said. “I couldn’t believe I had my first degree, and I was debt free. What a wonderful blessing!”



If students work hard during High School, complete all assignments on time, and demonstrate bright, positive attitude towards school, learning, and other people, then they can be highly successful as a high school student and qualify for academic scholarships also. Al they need to do is put in time, study time. All the hard work and effort during high school will defiantly pay off. They will be rewarded for their hard work. But if they just mess around during high school years and neglect their studies, use drugs, and mistreat others, then they can expect to fall short of what could have been their rewards of scholarships and other opportunities, and they will suffer in the short and long term. Invest in yourself. Give yourself opportunities of a lifetime by succeeding in high school on a super high note. Then you can:

Student Success Stories Part 5

 Andrea Packer- Without the prestigious DCCC Presidential Scholarship she won in 2008, Andrea Parker, a 2010 DCCC honor graduate, says she doubts she would already be pursuing her baccalaureate degree from Catawba College. “I cannot say thank you enough to whomever paid for my education, and I am going to continue to do my best to make them happy that they invested in me,” she said.


Since August 2010, Parker, 20, has been working towards her bachelor’s degree in early childhood education from Catawba College, and she doesn’t have to leave DCCC’s Davidson Campus to do so. She said she likes the convenience of leaving her teaching assistant’s job in one DCCC building and walking only steps to her evening Catawba classes where she is taking history, statistics and education courses.

Student success statement

“The most valuable asset you will ever have is your mind and what you put into it.”

What this statement means to me that if you use your mind to do good thing then in the end of everything you have done that’s good then and only then will you receive the things you deserve. Also this means that if you use your mind to do something then just do it because its your mind use it when you need it. Also this means to use your mind to do good and not for selfish reasons.
