The Alabama School of Healthcare Sciences, a tuition-free public high school, is set to open in Demopolis in fall 2026. Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey approved the creation of the school May 2 after its legislation cleared the House in April and Senate in May. In February, the governor said the legislation was among her top priorities and noted the state-funded healthcare high school — a concept she introduced in 2023 — is an important part of the state's workforce development programming, particularly for rural Alabama. 'There is simply no denying it, and we need more people to fill just about every kind of healthcare job out there — doctors, nurses, techs, you name it,' Ms.

阿拉巴马州医疗保健科学学院是一所免费的公立高中，定于2026年秋季在德莫波利斯开学。阿拉巴马州州长凯·艾维（Kay Ivey）于5月2日批准了这所学校的创建，此前该校的立法于4月获得众议院通过，5月获得参议院通过。2月，州长表示，这项立法是她最优先考虑的事项之一，并指出由州资助的医疗保健高中（她于2023年引入的一个概念）是该州劳动力发展规划的重要组成部分，尤其是在阿拉巴马州的农村地区。“这是不可否认的，我们需要更多的人来填补几乎每一种医疗保健工作——医生、护士、技术人员，随便你怎么说，”她说。

Ivey said in her 2024 State of the State Address. Alabama Senate minority leader Bobby Singleton told The Montgomery Advertiser that he expects at least 200 students enrolled.Legislation for the school outlines its board of directors, which will consist of the CEOs (or their representatives) from Whitfield Regional Hospital in Demopolis, the Alabama Hospital Association, and the presidents of various state universities, such as Auburn University and the University of Alabama at Birmingham.

艾维在2024年的国情咨文中说。阿拉巴马州参议院少数党领袖鲍比·辛格尔顿告诉《蒙哥马利广告商》，他预计至少有200名学生入学。该校的立法概述了其董事会，董事会将由德莫波利斯惠特菲尔德地区医院的首席执行官（或其代表）、阿拉巴马州医院协会以及奥本大学和伯明翰阿拉巴马大学等州立大学的校长组成。

Additionally, the governor will appoint other board members, with a mandate that five of them possess expertise in healthcare, public health, or healthcare administration. .

此外，州长将任命其他董事会成员，授权其中五人拥有医疗保健、公共卫生或医疗保健管理方面的专业知识。。
