The HOSA Internationals competition in Dallas, Texas went well this past week. Out of the nine Pioneer students participating we had two that finished 8th place in Community Awareness. They were Destiny Rose, from Lexington High School, and Elyse Bishop, from Buckeye Central High School. We also had one student advance to the second round of competition and that was the only junior on the trip, Alexis Bise, from Ontario High School. Chaperones and students all had a good time and it was exciting and an honor to have these fine young ladies as our representatives for Pioneer Career & Technology Center.
