Proud moment for Vet Science and CTC! 🐾
Thank you, Senator Koehler, for recognizing Gabby, one of our recent graduates and former FFA Officer!
Gabby, congratulations on this well-deserved honor—we're excited to see all you'll accomplish in the future! 🎓💙
I had the privilege of having Gabriella Halderman shadow my office in Columbus today. Gabriella is a recent Clark CTC graduate who is heading to Sinclair Community College to be a Veterinary Technician.
Besides being in 4H, she is also a Clark County Fair Queen candidate who drove all the way to Columbus, just to see how government works up close.
Among other things, she attended a Controlling Board hearing where we discussed how we are spending your tax dollars. She also met the Ohio House Clerk and the Senate President’s Chief of Staff.
Gabby and I discussed legislation I have worked on regarding everything from farm equipment on highways to the # of chicks you’re allowed to buy at a farm store.
I also asked her to review House Bill 664 that would expand her responsibilities as a Vet Tech. It just passed the Ohio House and we will hold hearings in the Senate when we return in the Fall.
I am excited to see someone genuinely interested in how government works. Her enthusiasm made a long day a little brighter.
