Earlier this month, 12 Watertown High School students attended the HOSA (Health Occupation Students of America) State Leadership Conference and Competition at the Kalahari Resort in Wisconsin Dells. The students showcased their competitive skills in the areas of Forensic Science, Emergency Medical Technician, Public Service Announcement, Medical Spelling, and Pharmacology Science. The students also attended a variety of breakout sessions to grow their healthcare knowledge and leadership training.
The students attending the conference were Owen Sjoberg, Jackson Medina, Addie Meintzer, Kieston Keel, Lydia Meyers, Emily Bardenwerper, Hannah Cookson, Sophia Nieto, Kylie Tripp, Ashley Almendarez, Eleyna Stadler and Taija Garcia.
Noah Gibson, WHS teacher and advisor to HOSA, said the program is made possible through student-led fundraising efforts and support from local community partners including Watertown Regional Medical Center; Spero Heritage Homes; Area Dental Clinic of Watertown, WI; Harry E. Gibson, D.D.S.; Deb Kind-Hall, R.N.; and Emily Stoddard, M.D.
We have much to celebrate in the Watertown Unified School District across all grade levels. We also send our best wishes to our student musicians competing at State Solo & Ensemble this Saturday! 🎶
