Congratulations to HHS Honor Student Kennedy Lewis Nominated for The Congress of Future Medical Leaders!
Kennedy Lewis, a junior at Heavener High School of Heavener, Oklahoma is a Delegate to the Congress of Future Medical Leaders to be held June 26 - June 28, 2024, just outside Boston, on the University of Massachusetts Lowell campus.
The Congress is an honors-only program for high school students who want to become physicians or go into medical research fields. The purpose of this event is to honor, inspire, motivate, and direct the top students in the country interested in these careers, to stay true to their dream and, after the event, to provide a path, plan, and resources to help them reach their goal.
Kennedy's nomination was signed by Dr. Mario Capecchi, winner of the Nobel Prize in Medicine and the Science Director of the National Academy of Future Physicians and Medical Scientists to represent Heavener based on her academic achievement, leadership potential, and determination to serve humanity in the field of medicine.
During the three-day Congress, Kennedy Lewis will join students from across the country and hear Nobel Laureates and National Medal of Science recipients discuss leading medical research; be given advice from Ivy League and top medical school deans on what to expect in medical school; witness stories told by patients who are living medical miracles; be inspired by fellow teen medical science prodigies; and learn about cutting-edge advances and the future in medicine and medical technology.
This is a crucial time in America when we need more doctors and medical scientists who are even better prepared for a future that is changing exponentially. Focused, bright, and determined students like Kennedy Lewis are our future and she deserves all the mentoring and guidance we can give her.
The Academy offers free services and programs to students who want to become physicians or go into medical science. Some of the services and programs the Academy offers are online social networks through which future doctors and medical scientists can communicate; opportunities for students to be guided and mentored by physicians and medical students; and communications for parents and students on college acceptance and finances, skills acquisition, internships, career guidance and much more.
The National Academy of Future Physicians and Medical Scientists was founded on the belief that we must identify prospective medical talent at the earliest possible age and help these students acquire the necessary experience and skills to take them to the doorstep of this vital career. Based in Washington, D.C. and with offices in Boston, MA, the Academy was chartered as a nonpartisan, taxpaying institution to help address this crisis by working to identify, encourage, and mentor students who wish to devote their lives to the service of humanity as physicians, and medical scientists.

Wolves, Bulldogs set up big matchup
By CRAIG HALL
Heavener and Spiro have played virtually every year in football over the last two decades, but big games between the two LeFlore County rivals have been few and far between.
Actually, the last big game that helped decide a playoff team came in Nov. 2, 2008, when the Wolves defeated Spiro, 58-26, to advance to the playoffs.
Heavener will hope for a repeat when the Wolves host Spiro in a Week 9 game Friday that should determine the third and fourth place teams in District 2A-8 as long as neither team stubs their toe in Week 10 games which have Heavener visiting Antlers and Spiro hosting Wilburton.
Both teams are 5-3 overall and 3-2 in district play, losing only to the district’s top teams in Eufaula and Idabel.
Students from our HHS BPA organization presented our Special Olympics team with a donation raised from a recent bake sale.
A big shout out and THANK YOU to all who donated today during BPA's Blood Drive! The group is excited to announce they met their goal and helped save 75 lives!
