Recently, students in Mrs. Morse's 7th Grade Family and Consumer Sciences class were in the Foods Lab making French Toast. This lab allowed them to learn about the Grains Group of MyPlate and apply some simple food preparation techniques to use at home.
Congratulations to OMS and OHS Fox Friday winners from March 7, 2025! These students were nominated by staff members or other students for demonstrating the Fox Four (Safety, Responsibility, Respect, or Positivity).
Staff members were nominated by students or other staff members for being a role model, an advocate for students, or having a positive connection with students.
Students in Mrs. Morse's Culinary Arts class recently reviewed recipe reading and writing. Their task was to write their own recipes for an appetizer using ingredients already found in the foods lab. There was much pride and creativity shared amongst the class.
Students in Mrs. Morse's Food for Life class just learned about how to read a nutrition facts label. Each student made their own individual pizza by choosing the amount of ingredients and nutritional value based on reading the food labels.
For the 2024-2025 school year, we would like to introduce/share about as many staff members as possible, as everyone has an integral role in our school community.
Staff were asked to share about themselves using a "6 word summary." Read on to learn a bit more about our elementary custodians!
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.
Omro High School selects a senior student each month to be the Student of the Month. Seniors are selected for their academic successes, leadership abilities, citizenship, and extracurricular activities. The seniors who are selected for this honor are also invited to attend an American Legion meeting for recognition by the sponsoring organization and may go on the ballot to be a graduation speaker.
The March Student of the Month is Delia.
Throughout high school, Delia has been involved in Soccer, Sources of Strength, National Honor Society, and Key Club. She can also be found volunteering her time by participating in Highway Clean Up, Shopping Day with Kids, working field days and the Milis Track Meet, as well as making birthday and Christmas cards.
Outside of school, Delia enjoys seeing her family, hanging out with friends, and being outside.
After graduation, she plans to continue her education at UW-Green Bay, majoring in human biology and planning to then go to medical school.

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 -
Congratulations to our Fox Paw winners from H.B. Patch and OES for the week ending on March 7, 2025. Thanks for exemplifying the Fox Four of being safe, responsible, respectful, and positive!
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.
Congratulations to OMS and OHS Fox Friday winners from March 7, 2025! These students were nominated by staff members or other students for demonstrating the Fox Four (Safety, Responsibility, Respect, or Positivity).
Staff members were nominated by students or other staff members for being a role model, an advocate for students, or having a positive connection with students.
PTO: Omro's Parent Teacher Organization strives to support District staff and students in PK - grade 8.
Did you know that the PTO gives a total of $20,000 to Early Childhood through grade 5 each year? Lets not forget about the middle school who receives $5,000 each year. A few items these funds have supported include the purchase of 3D printers, PBIS acknowledgements, reducing costs of field trips for all students, new play Kitchen items for 4K, and monthly popcorn.
In addition, our PTO actively volunteers; it takes 8 volunteers, monthly, to pop popcorn at OES, Patch, and OMS. It takes 60 volunteers for the Holiday Shop, which OES and Patch experience. There are more volunteer opportunities with various fundraisers and staff appreciation week.
