Flathead High School students Hannah Cantrell and Katherine Gonzales focused on making school more inclusive for children with disabilities in preparation for the fast approaching Montana HOSA — Future Health Professionals state competition. 

Cantrell, a sophomore, and Gonzales, a junior, are among 27 Flathead High School HOSA — Future Health Professionals readying for the State Leadership Conference in April. HOSA is an international career and technical organization that provides students with opportunities to explore health care fields through education, leadership, competition and training.

The program gave Cantrell and Gonzales an opportunity to raise awareness in their school community on the importance of inclusion in improving the mental health of students with disabilities.
