About Us
HOSA, a co-curricular club, is a health career organization of which all Health Science Technology and Public Safety & Security students may become a member. Our students become members of the state and national organizations that “promote careers in healthcare”, while allowing them to practice leadership and interpersonal skills through competition. Our local chapters, HOSA Pioneer, HOSA Heritage, HOSA Pride, HOSA Freedom, and HOSA Heros are very involved in service to the school and community. Two officer teams, one a.m. and one p.m., head the local chapters under the direction and guidance of their respective advisor.
