Goodnight Doctor Edmond,

Are we allowed to wear long underscrubs under our uniforms? If so what colors are we allowed to wear?

Also do we have to bring all of our textbooks to school on the first day? Because I packed them in my bag and it weighs down on my back quite a bit.

Hello Dr. Edmond

Are the incoming seniors only supposed to renew their TB test and flu shot on Castle Branch?

# data[].attributes.body
Are we expected to come in at 7:15AM on the first day?

# data[].attributes.body
Good afternoon Dr. Edmond,

I wanted to bring up some concerns about communication with the students. I’m concerned that a student was privately notified to get another drug test cleared for Castle Branch while other students remain unaware, which leaves things to be done last minute and rushed. To me, this also presents as favoritism or special treatment, especially after you’ve stated there are no favorites.

As a parent, I believe all students should be included in any information you share, whether it is beneficial to one student or not. A more formal, consistent method of communication would ensure fairness and prevent misunderstandings.

Thank you for your time and understanding.

Hello Everyone,

Every student enrolled in a CTE program must have working papers- This is the LAW.

Please make sure you send Ms. E a copy of your working papers and have a copy on hand as this will need to be uploaded to castle branch soon.

Please be sure your CPP account is set up. If you don't have a CPP account please email me and I will direct you accordingly.

Dr. Edmond

New CastleBranch Requirement: Working Papers Upload 

# data[].attributes.subject
New CastleBranch Requirement: Working Papers Upload 

# data[].attributes.body
In addition to uploading working papers to CCP Students will now need to upload their working papers to the platform.

Why this matters:

Working papers are essential for all students enrolled in Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs. They help ensure students are eligible for internships, clinical placements, and other hands-on learning experiences that are a key part of CTE.

What to do next:

✅ Make sure your working papers are up to date

✅ Scan and upload them to CastleBranch as soon as possible - you shakily have done this in your COP account as well.

✅ Reach to castle branch out if you need help with the process

This new step helps keep everything organized and ensures students are ready for real-world learning opportunities.

Question about Lippincott Nursing Products for the Fall

# data[].attributes.body
Hello Dr. Edmond,

Do we only purchase these two e-books for the fall semester?

# data[].attributes.body
I hope you’re doing well. I need some help understanding the documents I have to submit. I've been told I need a CPR certificate, a Bloodborne Pathogens certificate from ATI, and a HIPAA certificate from ATI. I'm not sure what these are or how to get them.

I have purchased Castle Branch, but I’m not clear on how it fits into this process. Could you please explain what I need to do to get these documents? Any information you can give would be really helpful.

As you complete the items health forms you upload them to castle branch. Blood borne pathogens is a training done in school- ATI certificates for HIPPA will be done later as well. Each student needs to have an American heart association Basic Life support training. Again as you get each one you upload them to castle branch.

Hope this helps.

I am seeking information regarding the Castle Branch drug test process. I have an upcoming doctor's appointment and would like to know if I need to bring any specific documentation for them to complete, or what steps I should follow in preparation for the test. Could you please provide guidance on the necessary procedures and requirements?

All forms needed for your visit to the doctor can be found on castle branch. You have to create a castle branch account.

The folder given at orientation has a package code. Use that package code on the castlebranch website to purchase immunization tracker and drug test.

Once you have done that download the forms needed for the MD appointment. Then go to a the designated lab for the drug test.

We will not accept drug test done by your provider.

If you have to be walked through the steps call castlebranch they will walk you through the process….the number should be on the castlebranch information sheet handed out during orientation.
