What an incredible way to celebrate 50 years of HOSA!
The HOSA International Leadership Conference officially opened with music, lights, and the Parade of Flags representing members from around the world. As a founding state member since 1976, New Mexico proudly joined the celebration of five decades of leadership, service, and healthcare excellence.
Students heard inspiring stories from HOSA leaders, scholarship recipients, distinguished alumni, and industry partners. The highlight of the evening was keynote speaker Chris Norton, whose remarkable journey of overcoming a life-changing football injury inspired thousands of future healthcare professionals to persevere through challenges and pursue their goals.
Following the session, GMCS students had the opportunity to meet Chris Norton and take photos with him. The evening concluded with students returning to their hotels to review, study, and prepare for the competitions ahead.










Today, students and advisors from McKinley Academy, Crownpoint High School, and Miyamura High School are headed to Indianapolis, Indiana to represent Gallup-McKinley County Schools at the 2026 HOSA International Leadership Conference!
These outstanding students have already proven themselves among the best in New Mexico, and now they will compete, learn, network, and showcase their talents on the international stage alongside thousands of future healthcare professionals from around the world. We are incredibly proud of their hard work, dedication, leadership, and commitment to pursuing careers in healthcare.
Wish them luck!
