Student of the Year
Robdreka Simmons
Robdreka Simmons enrolled in Mississippi Delta Community College's Adult Education program at the Greenville WIN Center in March of 2023. Robdreka did not have any transportation to the WIN Job Center so she walked approximately 2 miles each direction to attend class, often at the height of the summer heat, demonstrating her unwavering dedication to earning her HSE. Robdreka earned a Silver CRC and completed her HSE in July of 2023. She then enrolled in the Pharmacy Tech program at Mississippi Delta Community College's Capps Center in August '23. She successfully graduated and passed her boards to earn her Pharmacy Tech certification in December '23. Robdreka is interested in pursuing her CNA certification in addition to her current Pharmacy Tech certification. She is planning to enroll in CNA courses in the near future.
