Future Nail Techs in the Making!
Last week, Mrs. Mixon and her Nail Technology class from the Dorchester County Career & Technology Center visited Woodland Middle School to showcase this amazing CTE program!
With over 30 years of experience as a licensed cosmetologist and 20 years as a salon owner, Mrs. Mixon has been shaping future professionals at DCCTC for 14 years. Her students—who come from both Dorchester District 4 (DD4) and Dorchester District 2 (DD2)—not only gave middle schoolers fabulous manicures but also shared insights about the class, certification process, and career opportunities available after completing the program.
This hands-on experience, facilitated by Dr. Robyn Mixon-Davis, DD4's Transition Specialist (and Mrs. Mixon’s daughter!), was a great recruitment tool and a career pathway discovery opportunity for our students.
Dorchester District 4 is committed to highlighting CTE programs that prepare students for real-world careers, and this event was a perfect example of education in action!
