Outreach[edit | edit source]

Welcome to TMS Outreach! We are a committee dedicated to educating the youth of Denton about medicine; whether it be on neuroscience, emergency response teams, or veterinary medicine, our goal is to inspire elementary and middle school children to get involved in medical fields. Through the incorporation of interactive activities and games along with lessons taught by our very own students. TAMS students will volunteer within the classroom weekly, providing a safe, friendly, (and most importantly) fun environment to spread the importance and variety of the medical field. Our mission is to spread the passion for medicine from the TAMS community to a future generation of medics.
