“DCH Fayette Medical Center is proud and excited to partner with Fayette Elementary School through the Adopt-A-School program,” DCH Health System Director of Volunteer Services and Wellness Wendi Parminter said. “This collaboration reflects our deep commitment to supporting education, investing in our community’s future, and helping students grow and thrive both inside and outside the classroom.”

DCH also said it plans to bring its signature career awareness event to the school this spring, with the program designed to be both educational and engaging.

This initiative will introduce students to various medical professions while helping alleviate fears about visiting the doctor or hospital by creating a fun and welcoming learning environment.
