Don't forget about this fun event happening tomorrow!
OHS Student of the Month for May is Caleb.
Throughout high school, he has been National Honor Society and played soccer, basketball, track and field, and golf.
After graduation Caleb plans on attending UW-La Crosse and majoring in Biology and eventually graduate school to become a physician assistant.
When asked what his plans for the future are, he replied, "In ten years, I hope to have a stable job as a physician assistant. I would like to still live in the area, with a nice house and big yard. I would also like to be married with 3-4 kids. Overall, I want to live happy and have a stress-free life."
Congratulations Caleb!
Students in Mrs. Morse's Advanced Culinary Arts class participated in a Cake Decorating contest as part of their Bake Shop Unit.
Students worked in partnerships to design a cake according to their client's request. "Clients" ranged from a couple getting engaged, a cake for a 5 year old's birthday who likes animals and outdoors, a cake to celebrate Mother's Day and a birthday cake for an 18 year old who enjoys cars and movies. Guess which cake won? (Congrats to Levi and Brena!!)
Recently, OHS students attended prom. Here is a throw back to the 2009 prom court!
Biology students at OHS got to experience the fun of extracting DNA from strawberries. It was a little thrilling and a little gross (the DNA looks like saliva as it separates).
Strawberries make great lab subjects because they have eight copies of each chromosome and they make the lab smell yummy!
Today is National School Nurse Day!
Congratulations goes out to Levi as he received his first place plaque along with $2500 for winning the Optimist International Essay Contest. On May 6, 2023, Levi read his essay and was honored at the convention in Green Bay. Supporting Levi at this event were his parents Amy and Scott Harper, and his teacher, Tracey Miller.
Congratulations to Emma and Felicity who performed their solos at state solo/ensemble.
Felicity earned a 1 (highest rating) on her flute solo. Emma received a 1 on her music theater solo and a 2 on her classical solo. Bravo!

Mrs. Morse's World of Children students recently completed their Story Hour unit. Students worked cooperatively with a partner to choose a story to read to the class that would be appropriate for a group of toddler and preschool age children. Along with the book, they created a visual to go along with it (flannel board, magnets, etc.) and recited a song or fingerplay to complete their story hour. Fun (and many treats) were had by all!
Congratulations to this week's OMS and OHS Fox Friday winners!
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.
From the kitchen to the lunchroom, cafeteria staff is essential to making sure our students eat well and learn. We're so grateful for all you do every day. Happy #SchoolLunchHeroDay!
The Assistant Child Care Teacher (ACCT) is a course that prepares students to work in the Child Care Industry. Thus far, these students have earned their SIDS, SBS, WI Breastfeeding, and CPR certifications.
They just recently completed their Practicum at the early childhood level in a collaborative effort with Miss Kelly and her 4K students. The OHS students worked in cooperative groups and taught Miss Kelly's AM and PM sessions learning centers based on the theme of "Gardens and Flowers." This practicum earns them their Department of Instruction certificates to be an Assistant Child Care Teacher.
"This is an amazing group of young ladies who have a natural born talent to work with young children. I am extremely proud of them and all they have accomplished this year." -- Mrs. Cindy Morse
"The high school students prepared FANTASTIC activities that kept my students engaged and excited to learn! I could tell that they put a lot of time and effort into planning their lessons and creating the activities. It was a pleasure to have them join my class! " -- Miss Kelly (4k Teacher)
