“This year has been very rough for me since I lost my father, and I've been hospitalized 3 times. When I enrolled at Arlington Career Institute, I felt a little worried. But once the ball got rolling, I was able to find myself again. The medical terminology class instructed by Mrs. Sandra made me feel that I had a purpose for being in the medical field. I have previous medical experience. Walking in her classroom and absorbing the education she provided made me feel well prepared for anything the medical field has to offer.”
Shania Parker
“Coming to Arlington Careers was the best decision I’ve ever made. I’ve learned so much and did something I thought would be impossible. The teachers (Mrs.Sandra and Ms.Martinez) are such amazing teachers if you are struggling they won’t leave you hanging. They’ll continue to help you until you finally get it. Also Ms.Candice and Ms.Sharp are always there when you need someone to talk to, they genuinely care about each and every student that walks through their office. This school is worth going to.”
