Oak Hills High School’s Army JROTC battalion has been ranked as Honor Unit with Distinction (HUD) following a recent evaluation of the program. Every three years, the JROTC program undergoes a rigorous accreditation inspection and only a score of 95 or higher out of 100 earns HUD recognition. 2013 was the last time the battalion earned this distinction. Honor Unit with Distinction earns the program a special sash addition to their flag, and all cadets wear a special gold star on their uniform as recognition of the achievement. Cadets from Honor Units with Distinction also have an advantage when applying for ROTC scholarships during the college application process. This is something that OHHS JROTC Battalion Leader, and current 12th-grade student, Miss Danielle Mitchell, knows as she recently went through the college application process herself. Miss Mitchell is also a recipient of the prestigious National ROTC Scholarship and will be attending Cal Berkeley in the fall on a full ride. Congratulations! to all the students on their achievements.
This week is School Nurse Appreciation Week. We are so thankful for our school nurses and all they do to keep our students happy and healthy. To kick off the week we are recognizing our district-level nurses, Brenda Harris-Mague, Sandra Salas, Anja Easter, and Shayla Savchenko. Some fun facts about our nurses: Brenda used to raise and show fancy rabbits, Sandra loves spending time in nature and photography, Anja is also a photographer, and Shayla enjoys cooking. We also asked them what they like most about nursing. Brenda said it's making a difference in the lives of others. Sandra said it's making people feel genuinely cared for. Anja said it's the opportunity to keep a whole community healthy! Shayla said it’s making a positive impact in people’s lives. Thanks for all you do!
