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 6-12 Specialists!
Attention!
The School District of Omro is CANCELING all AFTER SCHOOL activities for December 19, 2024. This includes community events that use our facilities.
STUDENT OF THE MONTH
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 December Student of the Month is Kayannah.
Throughout high school, Kayannah has been a part of Cross Country, Sources of Strength, Key Club, National Honor Society, Book Club, and Battle of the Books. She has also volunteered at blood drives, trick or treating for canned goods, highway cleanups, STEAM Nights, Field Days, and Ascension Mercy Hospital.
Outside of school, Kayannah enjoys playing the trumpet, reading, writing, and volunteering.
After graduation, she plans to attend a college on her list and major in Neurobiology.
What is the Omro Key Club, and Why Are 96 Students All In for 2024-2025?
The Omro Key Club isn’t just a club—it’s a movement of young leaders making a difference! This year, 96 Omro High School students have joined forces to create a powerhouse of community service, passion, and teamwork. 🙌🏻
Why?
Because they know the value of stepping up and giving back!
Here are some of the things Omro Key Club sponsors/supports:
🩸 Blood drives (in partnership with the Red Cross)
❤️🩹Heart disease awareness / volleyball tournament and money donation to the American Heart Association
🗑️ Co sponsors 2-3 highway cleanups a year with the National Honor Society (NHS)
📚 Some Key Club members are tutors!
📍 Help with a variety of local events, such as - OACCM halloween spooktacular, breakfast with Santa, breakfast with the bunny, Waukau chicken BBQ, and much more!
Key Club members dive into each opportunity with heart and enthusiasm!
By serving, these students gain so much in return. They discover how to tackle real-world challenges, create meaningful change, and grow into confident, compassionate leaders. Plus, research backs it up—students who dedicate time to service often perform better in school. It’s a win-win!
And let’s not forget the leadership skills! Whether leading a service project, planning a social event, or taking part in club functions, every activity builds their ability to inspire, organize, and create lasting impact.
Stay tuned for updates as we shine a spotlight on the incredible community service projects these inspiring Omro students are taking on this year.
Together, they’re proving that teamwork, service, and dedication can make the world a better place—one project at a time! 🌟💪
The National Honor Society executive board started a new tradition this year! They chose 4 students to adopt & shop for through the Christmas Crusade program sponsored by Form the Family (previously the Winnebago County Foster Closet) which is a non profit based in Oshkosh.
NHS members met after school to shop and select gifts for the kids. Thank you Liam, Ariana, Holly, and Makenna for each leading a shopping group!
Students in Mrs. Morse's World of Children class participated in mock Story Hour presentations geared toward reading to Preschoolers. They worked cooperatively in groups and chose a book with visuals, recited a fingerplay, and sang a song based upon a given theme.
Thank you to our Anchor Partners!
