Congratulations to the following athletes for achieving status on our Osky Strength and Speed Power Index Clubs!
A power number/index is a formula using maxes from bench, squat, and hang clean while factoring body weight. This determines your strength "pound for pound" and helps coaches see growth in students' strength level.
Maroon Club power index numbers are 425 for males and 300 for females. White Club power index numbers are 350 for males and 250 for females.
🎓 Attention Class of 2028 🎓

Yesterday, Ms. Mouton took a few Osky FBLA students to Mahaska County Head-Start to issue a check that the FBLA raised for their program. Students raised $150 by selling rubber ducks, and all proceeds went to the Mahaska County Head Start Program. We are grateful for their partnership with the high school!
Last Friday, some of our FBLA members lent a hand at the United Way of Mahaska County for the Take-Along packing event! They packed two weeks worth of breakfasts and lunches for students to enjoy during summer break. Thank you to our dedicated members for making a difference in our community! 🙌 #ALLIN #OskyBuildsLeaders
