At the September 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 September students of the month, Debahni Gutierrez Vargas (elementary), Jace Harger (middle grades), Connor Bell (high school), and staff member of the month, Nichole Van Winkle! 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


A huge thank you to the OHS Impact Tribe for helping with the Rendezvous 4th grade School Day. The group helped guided over a 150 students from Ogallala and 5 other towns through the historic Boot Hill, Mansion on the Hill, Little School House, and the Little Cabin. They did an outstanding job educating, managing, and leading the tours!

OHS Football has had a busy couple of days! The team carried on their tradition of helping set up at the Ogallala Indian Summer Rendezvous. Their tasks included moving tables, setting the stage, decorating the space, and handling lots of heavy lifting.
Tuesday, the team took their practice indoors to dodge the rainy weather. Whether on the field or in the community, these guys are putting in the work and showing their versatility and commitment to OG Nation!

Last night, the OMS 7th-grade volleyball team played in McCook. Despite weather warnings, delays, and changing schedules, the team showed GRIT and played all the games that were scheduled (when it was safe to do so)!
Even though the team lost, they learned so much, bonded (while sheltering in a restroom), and gave it their all. We are proud of you!
