⚠️Boys Soccer Schedule Change for this weekend!
Due to low numbers and injured players, Custer had to forfeit their game with us on Friday. Therefore, Groton will now play Hot Springs on Friday at 5pm at NSU. This means the Boys will NOT have a game on Saturday, August 15th.

- Girls Soccer vs. Dakota Valley @ 3pm
- Boys Soccer vs. Hot Springs @ 5pm

Saturday, August 15th in Groton
- Girls Soccer vs. SFC @ 1pm

The last few days in Belize have been an incredible experience for our Groton Area HOSA students. We've continued working alongside healthcare professionals in the medical and optometry clinics, seeing a variety of interesting cases while learning more about the healthcare needs of the Cow Pen/San Juan community. Some of our favorite moments have come from building relationships with community members—especially the kids who keep coming back each day to play games and spend time with us. This trip wouldn't have been possible without the incredible support of the Groton Area community and our generous local sponsors. Thank you for helping make this opportunity a reality! 💚🇧🇿

Soccer will be here before we know it! There will be a parent meeting tomorrow, Monday, July 27th at the soccer fields at 7pm, for all BOYS grades 7-12 interested in playing this fall! Go Tigers! 🐯⚽️

Groton Area HOSA has officially arrived in Belize! 🇧🇿 Our team of 17 students and 10 adults is ready to serve alongside trained medical professionals, helping provide healthcare in an underserved community while gaining an unforgettable hands-on learning experience. Thank you to everyone who helped make this trip possible. Follow along this week for updates!

Attention OST Parents,
