September Happenings!

It sure didn't take us long to get back into our school routine! We're all working very hard to make it a successful school year. Clubs and activities have begun energized with high hopes and expectations. It's important to remember the balance between academics and activities.

As we continue through our fall season, will continue stress the importance of our CORRECT character traits. Research has proven that students with strong character values, excel in academics, and in life.

We're Back!!

Welcome back to what promises to be a great year here at OCS.

It's so good to see everyone's smiling and eager faces. I'm looking forward to working with all of you this year!

We need to remember that a successful year begins from remembering how to be CORRECT!

That is to say...
Have COURAGE in all the new things you will do and learn.
Be OPTIMISTIC in all that you do. Believe in yourself.
Have RESPECT for your school, your teachers, and your classmates.
Be RESPONSIBLE in following directions and completing assignments.
Show EMPATHY and remember the feelings of others.
Be a good CITIZEN and support your school.
Be TRUSTWORTHY and honest.

We are going to have a wonderful year!!!
