Congratulations to OMS and OHS Fox Friday winners from Friday, December 8, 2023! 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. Kristen Whitney. She is a science teacher at Omro High School. Kristen is in her first year here in Omro and fourteenth year in education.
Kristen enjoys attending her children’s 4H and sporting events, along with fishing, bowling, cooking, baking, gardening, and reading.
When asked what she enjoys about working for the School District of Omro, she said, “As a new staff member, my favorite thing is how welcoming and helpful everyone has been. I already feel like a part of the Fox Family!”
Thank you, Mrs. Whitney, for all you do for our students!

Recently, AP Biology students investigated how cells maximize their surface area to volume ratio using agar blocks as model cells. The "cells" were made with a chemical that changes color in response to pH. The students had to creatively modify their model cells to allow for more diffusion/color change.
