Recent Dripping Springs High School graduates Priya Chandrani and Connor Johnson were among 12,000 attendees at the HOSA International Leadership Conference last month.
The annual event took place from June 21—24 at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center in Dallas. Both students were international qualifiers on the Healthcare Issues exam after placing in the top 10% of competitors at the state contest in March.
At HOSA's ILC, Chandrani placed fourth on the Academic Testing Center's Leadership test, a 50-item multiple choice test used to demonstrate students' basic knowledge in preparation to become future health professionals.
Chandrani will be attending Texas A&M University for a degree in biology/pre-med while Johnson will pursue a degree in public health at Texas Tech University.
