Akron Public Schools made a name for itself last Wednesday and Thursday at the OHIO HOSA State Leadership Conference. After attending leadership workshops and competing all day on Wednesday, Garfield, North and Buchtel HOSA Chapters participated in the awards ceremony on Thursday at the Glass City Center in Toledo. Our students made history as the first APS students to be recognized for earning industry credentials in a pathway and ranking in the top ten or better in five events!
