Staff were asked to share about themselves using a "6 word summary." Read on to learn a bit more about our Kindergarten team!

On Friday, March 14, some members of the OHS Spanish Club went to a Latin Dance Workshop at the Latino Arts Community Center in Milwaukee. Under the direction of Karlies Kelley, Director of Panadanza Dance Company, students learned about the different influences and moves of Salsa dancing. They had a lot of fun learning the dance, and after working up an appetite, enjoyed some excellent Mexican food at Botana's Restaurant.

In today’s world, knowing another language opens so many doors—that’s why our foreign language courses go beyond just vocabulary and grammar. Students don’t just learn how to speak another language—they connect with new people, explore different cultures, and gain valuable skills that last a lifetime. 💬💡
From the very first class, students are engaged in hands-on learning that makes language exciting. As they progress, they dive deeper into cultural traditions, global perspectives, and real-world communication skills that extend far beyond the classroom. By the time they reach the advanced levels, they’re not just speaking another language, they’re gaining a broader view of the world. 🗺️
And the impact doesn’t stop at graduation. Many of our alumni have traveled the world, studied abroad, and used the knowledge they gained here to take their next big steps. Whether they’re working internationally, building new friendships, or simply navigating new experiences, the time spent here has been helping them every step of the way.
The Art Walk is scheduled for April 10, 2025, from 5:00-7:00 pm. Please join us for an evening celebrating our Omro artists!

On Monday, March 10, Sources of Strength hosted a school-wide Rock-Paper-Scissors tournament to bring everyone together and have some fun.
Students got a beaded necklace when they arrived at school in the morning. They played R-P-S during passing time and lunch to win the beads of their opponent. Students had to have at least 5 necklaces to challenge a staff member. At the end of the day, the whole school cheered on the top 16 winners for the tournament. Grant Fink was the gracious champion of a $20 Kwik Trip gift card.
Fun was had by all.

As an extension of their learning during science instruction throughout the second quarter, grade 5 students created posters for the Wisconsin Rural Water Association’s Water Conservation Poster Contest! This year’s theme “Drip Drop Make It Stop” encouraged students to think about how water is wasted, whether it’s a leak or leaving the water running, what we can do to stop water waste and protect water for future generations.
Each class was allotted 3 entries into the contest. Winners will be chosen by attendees at the Wisconsin Rural Water Association’s Annual Technical Conference March 25-28, and will be announced the first week of April.
Congratulations to the following students whose posters were selected to be entered into the contest!
- JJ, Chuck, Hayden, Deklan, Sofia, Aubrey, Amaya, Harper, Kennedy, Kenton, Annabella, and Ella -

First grade celebrated positive behaviors by having some sledding fun!
First grade had the opportunity to learn about the process of making natural maple syrup. Mr. and Mrs. Ostertag shared their expertise and craft of maple syrup with our first graders. We were able to see a tree tapped at H.B. Patch. It was truly engaging. The students thoroughly enjoyed tasting the pure maple syrup compared to the store-bought version, solidifying their curiosity about the process.
AP Biology students recently made working models of cell communication pathways and then put their phones to educational use making stop motion animations of their models in action.
It was a fun way to learn about complex processes.
