Students had the opportunity to participate in a "Fox Time with Griffin" experience recently at Omro High School. Lindsay Loewe, from Collaborative Wellness, leads this event which offers a variety of SEL activities. The students also had some time to interact with Griffin, a Licensed Therapy Dog and K9 Good Citizen through the Fox Valley Humane Association.

#FoxPride is on full display during Homecoming Week!

This year's theme is "Cities", with each high school class representing a city.
Seniors ~ Los Angeles
Juniors ~ Nashville
Sophomores ~ Honolulu
Freshmen ~ Boston

Throughout the week, high school students will have different activities, enabling them to represent the theme. Hallway decorating was a great opportunity for each class to demonstrate their creativity and collaboration!

Every school is celebrating Homecoming this week; families should check the building newsletters for information about dress up days and any additional celebrations the school is participating in.

The Homecoming Parade will begin at 2:15 on the afternoon of Friday, October 10, 2025, following the map shared in this post. We would love to see you along the parade route!

For Show & Tell last week, 4K friends had a chance to bring in their favorite book to share with the class. This gives the students an opportunity to practice communication and social skills while building their confidence. It also supports literacy while connecting home and school. Students put into practice their respectful listening and turn-taking skills, while sharing something that is important to them.

The Omro 4K program strives to develop a positive attitude and approach toward school through a play based structure. Earlier this week, learners had the opportunity to develop their math skills prior to snack by making predictions, sorting, and comparing their predictions to the actual results. They all enjoyed learning math through a tasty experience!
