Thursday before winter break the Omro High School Book Club hosted the Mistletoe Mystery Book Exchange. Just like "Blind Date with a Book", the titles and authors were kept a secret and only a few clues were given on the wrapping paper. These books are for students to keep and enjoy over winter break. The High School Book Club hopes you had Happy Holidays!

OHS Book Club recently held their annual holiday party. Students did a secret Santa book exchange, watched a holiday movie, and had yummy snacks!






Congratulations to OMS and OHS Fox Friday winners from Friday, January 5, 2024! 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.



This week’s Omro Staff Spotlight features Mrs. Dawn Prickett. She is a Kindergarten teacher in her fifth year as a full-time teacher, but eleventh in education.
Dawn enjoys watching her son run Cross Country and her daughter play Soccer, Volleyball and Basketball. She also loves hanging out and playing with her five year old yellow lab named Benny. Additionally, she enjoys reading psychological thriller books.
When asked what she enjoys about working for the School District of Omro, she said, “I love the small town feel of Omro! This community really cares for its kids and definitely takes the approach that it takes a village to raise them. I love all of the great things that the Omro schools are doing. I appreciate the positive environment that our leadership provides.”
Thank you, Mrs. Prickett, for all you do for our students!

The day before winter break, sixth graders spent the day going through holiday rotation. They learned how Christmas is celebrated around the world, read about snowflakes and created holiday tessellations, made snow globe ornaments, and used their science knowledge to build the tallest Christmas tree out of spaghetti noodles and marshmallows.







Mrs. Clich's ELA classes exhibited their yearly poetry showcase! The poems recited via Readers' Theater were The Tide Rises, The Tide Falls, Celebrations, and 'Twas the Night Before Christmas. Skills enhanced by this wonderful activity are fluency, expression, vocabulary, comprehension, memory, confidence, flexibility when something does not go as planned, being a smaller part of a larger production, teamwork...and it's fun! Job well done, students! Thank you to all of Mrs. Clinch's ELA students and Mrs. Clinch!


Congratulations to our Fox Paw winners from H.B. Patch and OES for the week ending on December 22, 2023. Thanks for exemplifying the Fox Four of being safe, responsible, respectful, and positive!
