Our last Career, College, and Life Readiness Day is on Tuesday, April 16. Specific grade-level activities to support our vision are outlined below:
- Freshmen and
Sophomores: Report to OHS as normal to take the ACT
Secure. This is your opportunity to find out where you stand when it comes
to determining your college readiness. The exam will give you insight into
your areas of academic strength and areas that may need improvement as you
think about preparing for life after high school.
Students can go home after their last
exam is finished. However, they are welcome to stay on campus until the buses
depart at their normal time of 2:47pm.

expectations for the day.
- Juniors: There is no
school for Juniors on Tuesday, April 16. We suggest that you take this day
to visit a local college or participate in a job shadowing experience.
- Seniors: Report to OHS
at your assigned time to participate in our Life Ready financial
simulation known as Reality Check. This experience is done in partnership
with several local businesses, our police department, and alumni. It’s an
amazing experience and we are excited to offer this opportunity to the
Class of 2024.

here to view the communication outlining the simulation and to see what
time you should
arrive on Tuesday, April 16, 2024.
The simulation experience usually lasts about two hours for our seniors.
After seniors complete the simulation, they are released for the rest of the
day.
Seniors should arrive at their
assigned time and be dressed in business
casual attire. There will be upcoming Pride
sessions for all seniors beginning the week of April 1st to learn about the
simulation and to complete the introductory steps for the day.
