Health occupation students from Mountain Home High School competed in the 2020 Idaho HOSA State Leadership Conference this past week, and the results were overwhelmingly successful. 13 students competed and won a total of 16 medals. It is the best showing MHHS HOSA has ever had at the state competition.

The MHHS HOSA chapter also received National Service Project recognition for their fundraising efforts and work to raise recognition of childhood leukemia. This year’s Community Awareness Project focused on “Be The Match,” a national bone marrow donation registry, as well as fundraising through “Soap of Hope” to benefit a local student.
