4th, 5th, and 6th designed and built candy catapults for their Halloween STEAM activity. The goal was a 6 foot launch, but our overall winner shot almost 46 feet. Congratulations to 4th grader Isaias Popoca!
Dear OC Community,
This is Superintendent Jeff Smith with a quick update.
Due to Burt County moving into the Red on the health dial, O-C schools will be taking additional precautionary measures. Starting on Monday, November 9th student lunch schedules will be rearranged to have elementary students eat in their classrooms and 7-12 students in a staggered schedule to have fewer students in the lunch room. Open lunch campus for students in grades 7-12 will be temporarily suspended until further notice. Students may bring their lunch or go home to eat with written permission. As a reminder, all students may eat a school breakfast and lunch at NO CHARGE for the entire school year.
A complete list of changes may be found on the school website or going to the provided links. The changes are temporary but will be in place at least to the Thanksgiving Break on November 25th. Conditions will be evaluated each week to determine the best course of action. We greatly appreciate your patience and understanding as we continue to navigate our way through the Covid Pandemic.
