On Friday, May 9, Key Club hosted their final blood drive of the school year.
We are excited that we met our goal of over 100 pints donated, which provides an opportunity to recognize a graduating senior with a scholarship.
Many thanks to the Red Cross for all their help and support! Additionally, thank you to all community and student donors for making this possible and helping save lives!
Watch for an announcement for the date of our July blood drive.
Students in Mrs. Morse's Advanced Culinary Arts class are in the middle of their Bake Shop Unit. To learn more about cakes and decorating, they participated in a Cupcake Wars Competition. Based upon each team's chosen theme, they baked and decorated 12 cupcakes to set on a self-created display. Each display was judged by OHS Staff. The team earning the honor of "Cupcake Wars Champions" were the team of Bella, Maya, and Shayli who created "Surfside Sweets"-- vanilla cupcake filled with Smores flavors and topped with vanilla buttercream frosting.
Tomorrow Night is the Night to enjoy some Sweet Jazz!
This event will showcase our vocal and instrumental jazz musicians. In addition, attendees will be able to enjoy a treat made by our Advanced Culinary Art students.
~ Tickets for this event are $5 and can be purchased in advance or at the door. We hope to see you on May 14, 2025, at 6:00 pm!

On Saturday May 3, Key Club and National Honor Society members participated in their spring highway cleanup. It’s awesome to see how much fun the kids had cleaning up our community!
As they prepare to graduate this year, Sadie and Caleb are already standing out—not just for where they’re going next, but for what sparked their passion: The Omro Fab Lab
Led by the guidance and innovation of Mr. Turner, the Fab Lab gave both students a place to explore, experiment, and discover new paths for their future. 🙌🏻
🔬 Sadie came in dreaming of becoming a Forensic Scientist. But after taking the Engineering course, she’s now headed toward a future in Civil Engineering with an Environmental focus. Her words say it all: “Omro Fab Lab is the ONLY reason I am going into engineering.”
🔧 Caleb has always loved building and creating. Thanks to the 3D printers and hands-on projects, he’s been able to bring his ideas to life—especially for his work as a mechanic. “People don’t know what they are looking for until they come into the Omro Fab Lab,” he says, reflecting on how the space opens minds to careers students may never have considered.
Two different paths. One powerful launchpad. That’s what makes the Omro Fab Lab so special.
Stay tuned—we’ll be sharing more stories of how Mr. Turner’s Fab Lab is shaping students’ futures, one project at a time.

In recognition of Earth Day, Omro High School Biology students picked up litter on campus throughout our sport fields, woods, and arboretum. They focused on looking for items that can easily be overlooked, referencing the size of a dollar bill and looking for items smaller than it. The group found many plastic bottle caps, plastic zip ties, and candy and snack wrappers. Over the course of the afternoon, over 15 bags of plastic garbage were picked up. These proud Foxes are striving to keep our community clean!
