Give a brief description of your club.

MedPioneers is a club for high schoolers interested in a career in the medical field. Students have an opportunity to learn about careers in the medical field and network with various professionals. In meetings, we discuss key takeaways from presentations and how to incorporate them in our end-of-year project, which will be in the Spring of 2026. 

Who is the president or a good spokesperson for this club?

HalleAnn Mosley and Addison Kulawiak are co-presidents of this club. 

What are your goals this year for the club?

Our goals are to bring in 20+ medical professionals to talk and present to the OWLs, to try and get more OWLs who want to go into the medical field, or to try and get more OWLs to want to go into the medical field. We also have a goal to complete a medical service project with club members and attend a field trip.

How do you think this club will affect/push the students in the future?

This club will influence students to go into the medical field. OWLs will leave with new knowledge and hopefully experience that will serve them well when applied in medical school.

New knowledge about different medical professions, networking, leadership skills, and a new desire to join the medical field.

What do you hope your members will get out of this club?

We hope members learn more about medical careers and get to work with their peers to help the community. The goal is to open up medical opportunities for those interested.
