SL Mayor honors Kempner’s Health Science Technology Class

Kempner High School’s Health Science Technology class, instructed by Dr. Jeffrey Ricken, was honored by the City of Sugar Land Mayor James A. Thompson and the City Council in recognition of having received President Obama’s Silver Eagle Award – the highest level of civic service honor that can be earned by young adults in our country. The students held their 9th annual Blood Drive benefitting St. Luke’s Hospital, and for the third consecutive year reached a new record harvest for blood donations by collecting more than 650 units.
