At the February OPSD School Board meeting, the board honored 3 model students and one dedicated educator! These students & staff have shown what it means to do things “The OG Way.” They are risk-takers in and out of the classroom, show grit in all they do, and take ownership of their learning. We are so proud of our February students of the month, Collins Cone (elementary), Avery Hull (middle grades), Samantha Pacheco (high school), and teacher of the month, Tracy Cone! Keep up the great work! We greatly appreciate our community sponsors for donating prizes for these individuals to honor their accomplishments! #GoBigO #OGIndians #TheOGWay #CultureOfConfidence

First-grade students applied their learning on how to measure using non-standard units by measuring stick figures with centimeter cubes and sticks. This skill also demonstrated their knowledge of tens and ones as they had to count how many centimeter sticks (groups of ten) and cubes (ones) to find the total measurement. We love this hands-on learning!

We love seeing our students practice self-love at such an early age!
