Getting Ready!
from Reef HOSA Vol. 2
by Hosa23-24
As HOSA testing begins this month of November, students are diligently preparing for HOSA Districts, by collaborating closely with teachers and other peers to refine their knowledge and skills. Many students have attended afterschool lessons and have gone through intensive study sessions, practice exams, and mock scenarios to ensure they are well-equipped for the upcoming competition. Teachers play a crucial role in guiding students, offering insights, and creating a conducive learning environment. As the event approaches, the collective effort of students and teachers reflects a commitment to excellence in healthcare education and skills development.
Through the dates of November 29th–December 1st, we hope our students can showcase their dedication and hard work that they invested in preparation As the testing date draws near, the collective eagerness underscores a shared commitment to showcasing knowledge and skills in the healthcare arena


OurNewShirt!

Presenting our 20232024 HOSA shirt! We decided on this design through a voting form that allowed for HOSA members to vote on their favorite designs, which were submitted by some of their peers, and from there, this shirt was the majority vote! We hope you enjoy them as much as we do!

On November 15th, Coral Reef hosted their second blood drive of the year! Through the committee and willing donors, we were able to raise more blood to help those who needed it. These OneBlood Blood Drives are held annually at Coral Reef Senior High to find willing donors who are willing to donate a small portion of their own blood. This gift of life is used to support our healthcare system and make sure that patients who are dealing with trauma, surgery, cancer, and other medical conditions have a good chance of recovering. We still have two more drives to go, and with the help of willing donors, we can create a positive impact in many lives and develop a sense of altruism and giving in students. We hope we can count on more students for our next drives to continue our mission of helping people!

This was my second time doing it and I was definitely less afraid this time around. But I’m glad I did it and that I did it with my friends!
