Dear OHS Eagles,
We want to take a moment to recognize and celebrate the incredible effort our students in grades 3–5 have been putting into their SBA and NGSS testing. Their focus, perseverance, and hard work have truly impressed us. We are so proud of every OHS Eagle!
The Mad Science “Up, Up and Away” was a big hit with our learning community!

Field Day is scheduled for Wednesday, May 28th (rain date May 29th). Students should wear their class shirts, comfortable shoes, and bring a small blanket or towel for a picnic lunch! ONLY pre-registered volunteers allowed
