At Philipsburg-Osceola Middle School, we believe that participation in extracurricular activities is
fundamental to student growth, fostering teamwork, leadership, and a strong sense of community. To
encourage and celebrate this engagement, we are introducing the “4 Season Society,” a program
that will recognize students who participate in school-sanctioned activities during every season—fall (pre-season is in
summer), winter, and spring. This initiative will not only honor their commitment but also inspire
others to explore and invest in their personal development beyond the classroom. We do understand that many of our students participate in a plethora of activities outside of school, and that is fantastic. Sadly, without any relation to the district, they cannot be counted for this particular program.
Here are the 2024/2025 members of the POMS 4 Season Society:
Harris, Aidyn,
Demchak, Megan
Foley, Lucas
Mason, Brady
Koptchak, Hayden
Vaughn, Mason
Matson, Sophie
Spicer, Kesleigh
Kronenwetter, Sarah
Herring, Kalen
Harmic, Evelynn
Pelka, Lainey
Smith, Ava
Foley, Jonah
Meek, Aiden
Steinkamp, Aiden
Kuhn, Jacob
Meersand, Ayden
Wood, Jonathan
Karcewski, Ashley
Brown, Allison
Mclachlan, Courtney
Martin, Gunar
Furthermore, the student who participated in the most school-sanctioned activities is considered the "Mountaineer of the Year", and this year's recipient, with 8 activities, is Sarah Kronenwetter. Sarah participated in soccer, the fall play, cross country, reading team, basketball, math counts, track and field, and the spring play!
Finally, thank you to the local businesses and organizations that contributed to the first year of the 4 Seasons Society!
Diamondback, Ace Hardware, Osceola Mills Masonic Lodge, Carpathian Club, Pine Orthodontics, and the Osceola Mills VFW. - May 30, 2025 · Philipsburg-Osceola Area School District
