At first, teammates thought Clay was joking around, stumbling and clutching his chest like any player who takes a hit. The ball had somehow hit him directly on the chest instead of on the padding. It wasn't until Clay fell over that senior Ben Wu jumped into action, using skills he learned in the Health Careers Pathway program to assess Clay's condition.

student learning
Superintendent Grotting and Deputy Superintendent of Teaching and Learning Steve Phillips join Health Careers students on a day in the cardiac operating room.
“A lot of people are suffering due to poverty and natural disasters, and I think I could help them,” says Amulya Prabhala. “Many places around the world don’t have as many privileges as we do. In times of such disarray, I would like to be the person that helps them.”
Amulya has always dreamed of becoming a doctor. Now, in her senior year at Beaverton High School, her dream is forming into her future. She has applied to universities around the country and hopes to attend Portland State University or Oregon State University in the fall, where she will earn a bachelor’s degree. Medical school, she hopes, will follow.
