Join us
as we GO FOR THE GOLD and celebrate Homecoming 2023! This year Homecoming Week
starts on Sunday, September 24 and concludes on Saturday, September 30.
Homecoming Week is one of the most exciting times of the year! It allows our
current students to unite with generations of Raccoons to celebrate our
community and all our accomplishments. Below are all the important details and
information about the week. Please reach out to me or our Student Council
Advisors, Angela Fisher (FisherA@oasd.org) and

any questions.
I can’t wait to celebrate with everyone! Go Raccoons!

Congratulations
to our Homecoming Parade Grand Marshall—Bob Duffy!
This
year, we are excited to honor Mr. Bob Duffy, Director of Economic Development
for the City of Oconomowoc, as our Grand Marshall. Bob is always someone who is
GOING FOR THE GOLD and strives to make our community a better place. Besides
his responsibility for supporting the businesses of our community, he serves as
a mentor to many of our students as they work to become career, college, and
life-ready. He is always finding ways to partner with our various programs at OHS
in order to provide students with real-life and authentic learning experiences.
We are thankful to Bob for all his support and are excited to honor him at the
Homecoming Parade!
