Friday, the OHS UIL Academic team took a field trip. First stop was a tour of Lamar University. It was great to hear all they have to offer and run into some former students on campus. Then they travelled to Brazos Bend State park to visit the George Observatory. Students were divided into groups and challenged to work together to land on the moon and Mars. Students completed tasks in categories ranging from communication, data entry, life supports, bots, medical team, satellite deployment, navigation, geo, and bio. The Mission Expedition was followed by presentation: The Colorful Night Sky where they learned about stars. They ended the visit in the telescope dome gazing at the moon and stars.

OHS HOSA students recently had a supply drive, collecting items such as blankets, socks, activity books, and colored pencils to hand out to residents at Oakwood Manor Nursing Home for Valentine’s Day. In addition, Ms. Richie’s Floral Design class volunteered their time to provide wrapped single stem flowers to be handed out. The students and residents alike enjoyed the visit, and we hope they all feel loved! HOSA is sponsored by Mrs. Van Huis.

OHS Health Science classes recently welcomed guest speakers Ramona Hanks, an instructor from the LSCO EMS Program, and Morgan Shores, AuD. Mrs Hanks visited with the LSCO dual credit Medical Terminology classes about the different ways EMTs and Paramedics are able to maintain a patient’s airway. Students also enjoyed the hands on practice with endotracheal intubation. Mrs. Shores, an OHS graduate herself, shared information with Principles of Health Science classes about her educational and work journey as an Audiologist.
