Thank you to Ethan Brewer, 2022 graduate of OHS, who built this pavilion as his Eagle Scout project over the weekend of August 27 & 28th. He fundraised every dollar spent, made the plans, organized the volunteers to come, as well as helped build. We are very proud of you!

Today, we were able to move the entire Junior High from Newtown into the new Junior High facility in just four hours! Wow! Thank you to our amazing Custodial Team, Mr. John Sudlow, Mr. Tim Lee, Unit Office Staff, Administrative Team, and especially the OHS Football Team and Coaches who volunteered to load and unload our trucks today...these young men were amazing and displayed what it means to serve this community and school district! Let's get out and support these young men this fall on the gridiron! Thank you all for making a difference!
It's a Great Day!
