Biology Students Become Microscope Experts Sophomores at OHS had fun learning how to use microscopes in the lab. They can make their own slides, stain specimens for viewing, and observe the behavior of living microorganisms. One student made a slide of the underside of a fern leaf and captured beautiful plant cells.

Middle school students recently visited the care centers in Omro to spread holiday cheer. As members of the Holiday Club they made snowmen jars to give to the care centers as table decorations, played carols and performed poems and readings for the residents. Students also took time with some residents to create a snowman craft together. All middle school students colored door decorations that were given to each facility in hopes of brightening their space. It was a special day for all involved.

Mrs. Morse's Culinary Arts class was asked to help cater cupcakes for the "Beary-Foxy" Festive Holiday Event held at Menominee Park Zoo on Sunday, December 15. The class baked 12 dozen cupcakes and decorated them to represent the new additions joining the zoo- Mr. Reeves (black bear) and Mellie, Joey, and Apollo (3 feisty foxes). It was a great experience for the students and a nice opportunity to help give back to the community.
