We are sad to see Justin Lowry leave OVMS. He has been a dedicated asset to the OVMS community. Justin has committed countless hours to the athletes and athletic program at Owen Valley. We no doubt will have big shoes to fill. However, we wish him the best of luck as he begins a new chapter in his life at South Vermillion High School. The community is invited to honor Justin and his dedication to OVMS at a reception on December 13th following the 8th grade boys basketball game at approximately 8:30 PM

The Student Council is excited to announce our upcoming Can Food Drive. Collection of the canned goods will take place on Monday and Tuesday, November 20th-21st. This event aims to bring our school community together to make a positive impact on those in need during the holiday season. We encourage all students and faculty to participate by donating non-perishable canned goods. Each contribution will go towards supporting local food banks and helping families in our community enjoy a warm and nourishing meal during the holidays. To add a fun and competitive twist to the event, we are introducing a friendly competition among PRIDE classes. The PRIDE class with the highest number of donated items will be crowned the winner and rewarded with a Donut Party! Let's work together to make this Can Food Drive a huge success and spread the joy of giving. Your generosity can make a real difference in the lives of those less fortunate, and we believe that coming together as a community will make our efforts even more impactful.
