Because of the potential for rain this afternoon and into this evening, we have decided that Graduation will be held indoors in our auditorium. We are fortunate to have a large seating capacity in the auditorium and we are confident that all of our graduates' families and friends will find enough seating to enjoy our ceremony. Just a few details and reminders for this evening:
Doors to the auditorium will open at 5pm.
Graduates should meet in the Jack Davis Gym at 5:15pm and faculty who are participating should meet at 5:45pm. Graduation will start promptly at 6pm.
Following graduation, there will be a reception in the high school cafeteria.
We look forward to a wonderful evening celebrating the accomplishments of the Class of 2023!
Tonight we celebrated OM Class of 2023 Valedictorian Katie Adams and Salutatorian Tori Brewster at the 16th Annual Southern Tier Scholars Recognition Program.
Food was the theme of the day today. Students enjoyed a tailgate breakfast this morning! Our Spanish students and faculty enjoyed empanadas for lunch!
Due to potential inclement weather tomorrow, field day for Grades 5 and 6 will be moved to Thursday, June 15th at 8:30am. We will be combining 5th and 6th grade field day with the already scheduled 3rd and 4th grade Field Day.
Due to the air quality index, the district will keep all activities inside today including recess and PE classes. All outside windows will remain closed as well. We will continue to monitor the situation throughout the day today and tomorrow.
The last day of school for the Junior/Senior High School is TUESDAY, JUNE 13, 2023. After June 13th students in Grades 7-12 only attend school if they are taking a Regents Exam.
