🎓💙 Proud to Support Work-Based Learning! 💙🎓

The Veranda is proud to be a Work-Based Learning employer, and this year we had the pleasure of partnering with Lee County High School.

Regan Watkins spent the year with our team, getting a behind-the-scenes look at what patient care and the medical field are really like. Experiences like this give students valuable insight and hands-on learning as they continue their education and explore future careers.

This morning, our own Megan Watkins — and one very proud momma — joined Regan at the LCHS Work-Based Learning Appreciation Breakfast to celebrate the program and the students who participated.

We love being part of opportunities that help the next generation learn, grow, and discover their path!
