Where are they Wednesday!

Thank you to the OSF Innovation Hub and Frederick Fess and Lorena Magallanes for coming to visit each of our 3rd, 4th and 5th grade classrooms today. They presented on careers in medical imaging and the students participated in hands on activities related to those career fields. Students were also given information about OSF STEAM camps that are free to attend!

The 7th and 8th grade boys played at Serena last night with the 7th grade boys losing 49-10 and the 8th grade boys picking up their first win of the season 29-17. Both teams are back in action tonight at Wallace Grade School with the first game at 5:00 p.m. Go Bulldogs!

Koreen Judd from Knobelsdorff Energy visited and discussed careers in the trades, reading a book to our Kindergarten students as part of their Operation Trades Awareness initiative. Each student was given a copy of the book to take home with them. Thank you to Koreen and Knobelsdorff for visiting today!

The 7th (35-18) and 8th (34-33) grade boys' basketball teams played Tonica last Thursday and play again tonight, Monday, November 9th at Serena with the first game at 4:30 p.m. Go Bulldogs!

Marnie was a very busy therapy dog this week with morning arrival visits, morning walks with students, office visits with students and Top Dog Raffle Winner visits! Whether she's working or playing, spending time with her absolute favorite people at school—our students—is always the highlight of her day!

Parents/Guardians - Please share your extracurricular photos!

We have a feature in our yearbook program this school year and we are able to create a "community photo album" so that parents/guardians of Oglesby Schools can share pictures they take at extracurricular events. All extracurriculars have a designated photo album where parents/guardians can upload their pictures. These photos can then be shared in our social media posts, website and our yearbook.

PLEASE NOTE: While we appreciate every submission, please understand that due to the volume we receive, space limitations and some students who cannot have pictures shared on social media, we may not be able to feature every photo on social media, our website, or in the yearbook.

If you have pictures from an event that does not have a designated photo album, please email Traci Tomasson at tomassont@ops125.net to see if one can be added or not.
