"Incoming 7th Grade Info Night" at OVMS was a hit last night with students and parents! Students were able to learn about electives, club opportunities, band/choir, athletics, and 21st Century Scholarships.
Pictured below is SES 6th grader (and incoming 7th grader!) Madeline Hauser trying out her locker combination for the first time.
Unfortunately, our food truck has had to cancel. However, everything else is still on for tonight at OVMS for our incoming 7th graders. We can’t wait to see you! #socsowen #beawesometoday
