HOSA Visits with School Leaders at the Annual NASSP Conference

This year's NASSP Conference was all about "Breaking Ranks"

The streets of Tampa buzzed with the promise of education as more than 1,000 school leaders converged on the Tampa Convention Center March 8th. The conference, sponsored by the National Association of Secondary School Principals, was all about changing the way leaders think about education by "Breaking Ranks". Attendees visited many exhibitors during the three-day event, one of which was HOSA - Future Health Professionals! Principals and visitors were drawn to the booth by the presentation of this year's HOSA feature video: Impact Your Future. The video includes many of the most exciting facts and figures about HOSA as well as many attendees of the 2011 National Leadership Conference. See if you appear in the video on Youtube! Visitors to the display were greeted by Mrs. Sheila Carlton, past National Board Chairperson, and National President-Elect David Kelly. Some wanted to be introduced to HOSA, while others simply stopped by to offer their support - we have amazing advisors! One thing was exceptionally clear throughout the show: the word is getting out. HOSA is seeing incredible numbers come in at the national office in Flower Mound, Texas, and interest is only growing as health careers emerge at the forefront of global workforce needs. After seeing the enthusiasm of both established advisors as well as prospective chapters, one has to marvel at the incredible opportunity afforded to such an amazing organization. Ladies and gentlemen, the secret is out. HOSA is making its mark on the world of health, the world of education, and the world itself. HOSA - Future Health Professionals.
