Two Palo Verde High Magnet School seniors were selected to participate in a program promoting the orthopedic surgery and engineering fields for young women.
Rebecca Condes and Riley Shott attended the Perry Initiative’s Outreach Program at the Mayo Clinic Arizona in Phoenix on Sept. 20.
Condes and Shott got hands-on with six mock surgical exercises and heard from area female surgeons and engineers.
The Perry Initiative is committed to inspiring young women to be leaders in the fields of orthopedic surgery and engineering.
