​Brownwood High School (BHS) HOSA students competed at the State Leadership Conference in Round Rock on April 29-May 1. “We took a great group of students that had worked hard throughout the year,” said Health Science teacher Annalyn Deen. “The hard work paid off each night we were there. At the opening session, we had three seniors recognized with scholarships from Texas HOSA.” BHS seniors Isaiah Rosas, Kamila Ramos, and Miranda Northcutt received scholarships.
 
“The second day of competition was busy and ended in the Recognition session,” noted Deen. “This was one of our biggest nights as we had five students qualify for the International Leadership Conference.” Kyle Recolizado (HOSA Happenings), Hannah Deen (Organizational Leadership), Kamila Ramos (Health Care Issues), Xavier Martinez (Health Care Issues), and Jaleah Brew (Health Care Issues) qualified for the International Leadership Conference in their respective categories.
 
Kyle Recolizado also placed in the top five in the state in his category. “The third night of competition, we learned that Kyle placed fourth in the state in Pharmacy Science,” added Deen. “Overall we have had a great year with tremendous success.”
 
The HOSA International Leadership Conference will be held June 18-21 in Nashville, Tennessee.

​Brownwood Independent School District (BISD) is thrilled to announce a celebratory parade for the 2025 Brownwood Lady Lions Track and Field Team, who made history by winning the UIL Class 4A State Championship. This marks the first-ever state title for the Lady Lions program and the first for any Brownwood High School team since 1986.
 
The community is invited to join us in honoring our State Champions on Monday, May 19, 2025. The team will board a bus at 6:00 PM in front of Brownwood High School (BHS) and proceed along a short parade route to the BISD Central Support Center. The parade route will begin at the BHS circle drive, turn left onto Slayden St., left onto 10th St., left onto Good Shepherd Dr., right onto Greenway St., and conclude at the BISD Central Support Center parking lot.
