Omro High School

Congratulations to OMS and OHS Fox Friday winners from February 19, 2026! 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.

Mrs. Morse's Advanced Culinary Arts class had the opportunity to go to Fox Valley Technical College on Friday, February 13, to be a part of their Culinary Arts, Baking and Hospitality Event.

The students got to meet Chef Jeff and the rest of the FVTC Culinary Instructors, see food demonstrations, and tour the campus. They also had the chance to hear from past FVTC Alumni who have shared about their careers after graduating from the Culinary Arts Program.

The Culinary Arts class prepared a heart healthy snack for the whole school to enjoy for February-- Heart Month. A trail mix was prepared, packaged and delivered to students during their Wednesday Fox Time Advisory.

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 February 2026 Student of the Month is Tyler.

Throughout high school, Tyler has been involved with Football as well as Track and Field. Additionally, Tyler is an active member of Forensics/Speech and Debate, Spanish Club, Key Club, National Honor Society, Sources of Strength, Student Council, Jazz Band, Book Club, and Students Against Destructive Decisions. Tyler volunteers his time with Key Club and class concession stands, Shopping Day with Kids, STEAM Night, A Night of Music, Freshman and 8th Grade Orientation, Highway Cleanups, and Blood Drives for Key Club.

Outside of school, Tyler enjoys photography, writing, playing video games, going on road trips, playing acoustic guitar, watching movies, and hiking/exploring nature.

After graduation, he plans on attending UW Madison with a major in Wildlife Veterinarian Medicine.

On Wednesday, February 11, 2026, students from Omro High School participated in the Oshkosh Noon Optimist Club's essay and speaking contests. High school seniors Dylan and Kaia took 2nd and 3rd place for their essays. They were awarded a cash prize along with a free lunch at Delta Restaurant. Their writing prompt was: “How My Acts of Service Help Me Understand What My Community Means to Me.”

Contestants in the speaking contest were: 3rd place-senior, Macayla, 2nd place-freshman, Adessa, and 1st place-senior, Jayden. Their speaking prompt was: "The moment I realized I belonged - my definition of community."

Jayden will move on to the next level of competition in Green Bay in April. Speaking winners received cash prizes and a free meal (their advisor, Mrs. Miller, also treated them all to ice cream after the event).

Congratulations on a job well done by everyone. All should be proud of their talented work and presentations of their pieces.

No School for students today, February 16, 2026, while staff engage in Professional Learning.

Recently, the OMS and OHS staff was treated to a Have Fun at Work celebration. While our staff has fun daily, this was a unique opportunity to bring some extra joy to the work day. Staff were literally "treated" by traveling carts of drinks and snacks to enjoy.

Thanks to the "organizers" for bringing some extra fun into a recent Monday!

Congratulations to Cindy Morse on being awarded a $200 grant from the Wisconsin Beef Council!
