 My name is Andrew Haigley. I'm a senior at Rock University High School. My name is Janice Matasius, and I'm a senior at Rock University High School. My name is Troy Von Crane. I'm a student at Rock University High School and a student at Blackhawk Technical College. I'm studying lecture mechanical technology at Blackhawk, and I am studying criminal justice here at Blackhawk Tech. My name is Colleen Andrewd, and I am the principal and also the school counselor of Rock University High School. The real benefit is that students have an opportunity to earn an associate's degree and their high school diploma at the same time. Once I learned about RUHS, I was like, wow, that's an opportunity. It's crazy. It just continues to ball my mind when I think, wow, I'm a senior in high school, and yet I'm also getting two years of college done at the same time. This is the first cohort, first year of students who actually will graduate with their associate's degree. So we have five. Four of the five started with us as freshmen, and one of them started with us as a sophomore. Rock University and their partnership with Blackhawk is a really cool experience. And if I didn't know what I wanted to do, there's so many pathways here, so many courses I could have taken. When I graduate, I will actually have an associate's degree, which will actually get me the ability to have a job as a per educator or assistant teacher, which means I can still make money and continue my education in a different college. I am studying in the program for foundations of teacher education. In the future, I plan to be a middle school math teacher, and afterwards, after I graduate from here, I plan on going to UW Whitewater and continuing my education there. Afterwards, I'm planning to go to UW-Platteville in the fall to further my education, get my bachelor's, and then after that, I'm planning to come back to Janesville area and hopefully work for Janesville PD or Rock County Sheriffs. It just really gives me a lot of hope, and it provides me, you know, some talking points when I say, like, look at what our students are able to do with their contributing members of this community. We have talent going out into the community at a younger age, and we are preparing students to contribute to the community and support our workforce needs.
