Cave Spring High School
The innovative project Biscotte developed is "The PIT Crew: Physicians In Training," a career development program. It is designed to incorporate real-world experiences and career-driven assignments into the anatomy and physiology curriculum, giving students at Cave Spring High School a taste of what it is like to be a real healthcare professional right in the classroom. Components will include a book club with guest speakers, a chance to develop their own experiments, and an opportunity to access cadavers and university lab equipment to see what it is like to work in a clinical university setting. Through these activities students can see what it really takes to achieve the careers they desire. Biscotte lives in Roanoke.
