It's School Counselors Week!


Brrrrr! It's that time of year!
The temperature is starting to dip lower and lower as we ease into fall and winter.
Please remember to dress your child appropriately for the weather conditions...students will continue to go outside for recess as temperatures permit.


ED 101 students in Mrs. Londa Hight's classroom helped with the SES Family Literacy Night by hosting reading stations in the Kindergarten hallway.


Join our Food Service team!
Great hours, no evenings or weekends!


Special thanks to our friends at the Spencer Street Department for adding yellow painted lines on Hillside Avenue as a visual reminder to NOT park there during arrival and dismissal times.
Please help us keep our kids safe by following parking procedures, paying attention to cross guards, and watching for children who might dart into traffic.
It takes all of us working together to protect our children!


Check out this amazing mural that local artist Steve Adams just completed for Spencer Elementary School! Steve was also responsible for painting the beautiful mural spanning the SES cafeteria wall nearly 20 years ago.
What a great reminder to Do the Right Thing and Treat People Right!


Wow! What a great turnout for our annual Back to School Expo! Over 600 backpacks were distributed to area students.
A huge THANK YOU to all of the volunteers who made this event possible!
Special thanks to our friends at the Owen County Chamber of Commerce who helped organize this event.

Spencer-Owen Community Schools is very fortunate to have an outstanding office staff in each of our six buildings. As we celebrate Administrative Professionals Day, we would like to express our sincere appreciation to these ladies who are instrumental in keeping our schools going on a day-to-day basis!



Mrs. Tucker is going above and beyond for our students this summer! She has been instrumental in prepping the front entrance and has single-handedly cleaned the area. She also selected and planted our new flowers! Keep your eye on this space!





Lots of exciting things are happening inside of OVMS this summer! New tile, paint, and electrical work is happening now in preparation for a new collaborative space for students.
