Congratulations to Pioneer's Health Assistant seniors for passing their STNA (State Tested Nurse Aide)! 5 students in Mrs. Crane's class passed the test! To prepare for the test the students have to learn skills, do clinicals and take a written test as well. The test is usually taken their junior year, but due to COVID-19 the students couldn't finish the requirements and take the test until recently.

Good Afternoon - After consulting with local Health Department officials, Pioneer has decided to continue on our 4-day a week schedule as we have since the beginning of the year. Families will be notified through our one-call system and on social media if there are any changes.
