OCPS is sad to announce the retirement of Señor Lundquist at the conclusion of the 2025-2026 school year. While he will be missed, we congratulate him and wish him well in retirement. As a result, OC is hiring a 7th-12th grade Spanish teacher for the 2026-2027 school year. Help us spread the word!

Our 7th grade artists do! Last week, they got scrappy and creative exploring printmaking by crafting their very own collagraph plates. Their mission was to capture the fluid, organic shapes of plants, resulting in amazing textured prints! This project taught them about positive/negative space and how materials influence texture.
