**Robinson High School Launches New Veterinary Sciences Program, Community Support Needed**
**TAMPA, FL—** Robinson High School is set to introduce an exciting new Veterinary Sciences program under the leadership of Amanda Perez, a seasoned educator with nearly two decades of experience. As the initiative gains momentum, Ms. Perez is rallying the community for support to fully fund the program by September 4th.
Ms. Perez has been instrumental in developing the program, which aims to provide students with practical experience in animal care and health. In a recent social media update, she shared her appreciation for the community's past contributions, noting, “Thank you to my neighbors and friends! Our DonorsChoose was FULLY funded to get our starter cages/tanks and some animal supplies.” Despite this progress, additional resources are crucial to expand the program’s offerings.
To facilitate this, Ms. Perez has compiled an Amazon Wish List, featuring a variety of educational supplies and equipment essential for hands-on learning. The list is designed to help students gain practical skills in veterinary medicine, preparing them for future careers and fostering a commitment to community service.
“Hello neighbors, my name is Mrs. Perez. My students and I are working to build a new Veterinary Sciences program at the school,” Ms. Perez said. “This initiative represents a significant step in enhancing our educational curriculum and providing valuable, hands-on experience in animal health care.”
The Amazon Wish List is available at [this link](https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/1K1RN0X38POSN?ref_=wl_share&fbclid=IwY2xjawEciOlleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHUqNe47pSy8dXI0zQXvqa10nkaB00fnDmLbLn7Gu1gkkEqMQNVuIzMGGHw_aem_NAaVJtI8LmZEbkoIvzABnw), where community members can contribute to the program’s needs.
Robinson High School, recently recognized with an "A" rating from the Florida Department of Education for the third consecutive year, is poised to build on its legacy of excellence with this new program. The Veterinary Sciences initiative aligns with the school’s commitment to providing students with relevant, real-world skills.
