Last Week of School Reminders and Summer Updates

Thursday, May 30, 2024

Hi Raccoons!

Just like that, we are almost done with the school year! I want to express my sincere gratitude and appreciation to everyone for their support and trust this past year. Regardless of the role we play in our community, we have so much to be proud of! Over the next week, we will have the opportunity to celebrate our accomplishments, set goals to overcome any challenges and come together to honor our seniors as they graduate from OHS.

Below are several important details and reminders to help us close out the year and kick off our summer vacations. Please remember you can always reach out to me at CurtisJ@oasd.org or your counselor if you have any questions.

 

Have a great summer!
Jason

Summer Construction - Campus Disruptions
Over the next two summers, crews will continue working on the roof and HVAC replacement projects. In order to avoid any disruptions to the school year, we will maximize the summertime to complete these projects. Please note the following operational changes in order to support our crews:

• Main Office Relocated to East Campus (Starting Tuesday, June 11)
• The OHS main office and counseling staff will be relocated to East Campus starting on Tuesday, June 11. If you need to come in and meet with anyone or take care of any school business, please come to East Campus (915 Summit Ave). Our office hours are 7am-3pm and we will be closed on Thursday, July 4. 
• The only areas accessible at Main Campus this summer are the Field House, OAC, Tennis Courts, Greenhouses, and Weightroom. All other areas will be closed for construction, including our classrooms, student services office, and main office.
• Parking (Back Lots Closed)
• The parking lots in the back of campus are closed for the summer. Students coming to O-Power or individuals accessing the tennis courts should park in the South Lot.
• Individuals coming to campus events at the OAC should continue to park in the North Lot.
