Onalaska Middle School Students Explore STEAM Careers at Expanding Your Horizons Conference
Seven Onalaska Middle School students, along with their teacher Mrs. Anne Stingley, attended the annual Expanding Your Horizons conference at Centralia College last Saturday.
This event is designed to spark students’ interest in STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) careers while helping them explore the wide variety of opportunities available in these fields.
Students participated in a hands-on science workshop presented by OMSI, where they learned about Newton’s Three Laws of Motion. They also had the chance to attend two additional workshops of their choice, diving deeper into topics that inspired their curiosity.
Attending students included Wesley Manes, Leo Connelly, Orion Cherry, Zeke Cherry, Heather Hanson, Laura Hanson, Alyx Jarvis, and Kody Lohrengel.
It was an exciting and educational day filled with discovery, teamwork, and inspiration for our future scientists, engineers, and innovators!

The Onalaska High School Skills USA (skills and technical CTE club) went on a hike Saturday. They hiked near Walupt lake which consisted of 14.2 miles, 3,005 elevation gain, and took 7.5 hours. These students demonstrated teamwork, grit, and perseverance. These students are capable of pushing through anything and they know it! The start of the trail went straight up for 2.5 hours climbing nearly 2,000 feet over 4 miles. Students were fatigued in the first hour yet had an additional 6.5 hours left of navigating inclines, hillsides, rocks, and other obstacles in the trail. Despite the pain, all the students pressed on. Their attitudes were outstanding. They shared water, food, and took turns carrying each other backpacks. The students were Cian, Lakai, Sammy, Abby, Autumn, Loy, Jameson, Calista, Landon, Micah, and the incredible Ms. Hoppie.
