A group of southern Oregon school district superintendents and Asante Health representatives visited Klamath Falls for a closer look at a growing healthcare education partnership. The tour highlighted how local schools, Sky Lakes Medical Center and Klamath Community College are connecting students with classroom instruction, college credit and hands-on clinical experience.

Conger Elementary third graders explored Moore Park through the Klamath Outdoor Science School, learning forestry, ecology, wildlife habitats, and how to estimate a tree’s age by counting its rings.
