Members of the OHS Family Career and Community Leaders of America ended their year with a field trip to Lamar University Beaumont. Members checked in at the LU Welcome Center, received some swag, and were escorted over to the Nutrition, Hospitality & Human Services atrium. The college did an overview of the programs and degree plans offered and gave a tour of the building and culinary lab. The students enjoyed their visit and would like to sincerely thank Lamar University's faculty & staff for their generosity.




Good luck Lincoln!

The second annual Teddy Bear Clinic at OES was a success! First graders were excited for their stuffed animals to receive a check-up from HOSA-Future Health Professional students and tour an ambulance. With it being Career Day, we even had a few extra doctors in house! Thank you to Mrs. Holt with Acadian Ambulance Service for educating students both young and old about all things EMS.
