Due to the impact of the Omro bridge lane closure, OES, OMS, and OHS will open at 7:00 a.m.
for parent drop-off beginning Wednesday, May 13, through the last day of school on Friday,
May 22. The drop off time has been adjusted to provide families additional time to navigate all
the potential detours due to the construction.

OES students may be dropped off at the OES main entrance and will report to the gym, where
they will be supervised by staff members.

Middle school and high school students should be dropped off in the middle school parking
lot. Middle school students will report to the OMS gym, and high school students will report to
the OHS cafeteria. All students will be supervised by staff members.

After discussions with Lamers, the Omro City Administrator, and the Police Department, we
have developed a plan to minimize major bus transportation disruptions. To reduce the time
students are spending on buses, the School District of Omro buses will be escorted by law
enforcement southbound over the HWY 21 bridge. There may still be minor delays to bus
pick-up and drop-off times.

Please join us in recognizing Mark Bohn's time as a member of our Fox Family.

When asked to describe, in a few sentences, a moment in his career that he would not forget, Mark shared, "My first year at Omro, Principal Ed Goss gave me a bit of advice I have carried through the decades which was, 'The most important things that happen here are the things that happen within the walls of your classroom, every thing else only compliments this.' I never forgot that and take it to heart yet. "

Mark has held multiple positions within our District, including being a Middle School/High School Special Ed Teacher, High School Social Studies Teacher, High School Equestrian Coach, Track Coach, Football Coach, History Club Advisor, and Middle School Track and Volleyball Coach.

Thank you to Mark for your dedication and service to our Fox Family! Wishing you all the best in your retirement.
