For their final career lesson, Andrea Mauk taught 8th grade about career options in physical therapy. Students learned that to be a physical therapist, you have to get a doctorate. You can be a physical therapist's assistant, though, with an associates degree. They also learned you have to like science and working with people. One student got to experience one technique physical therapists use to get muscles to work again.
