This past weekend, a group of our talented students traveled to Marion, Kansas, to compete in the 2A State Speech and Drama Championship Tournament — a major accomplishment in itself! With 35 schools and 258 entries represented, the competition was fierce. We’re incredibly proud of all our students who made it to state for the first time: Ian Holding and Allysen McCready competed in Duet Acting. Noah Keele and Kaylyn McCready competed in Improvised Duet Acting (IDA) — and made us especially proud by advancing to semifinals, then finals, and ultimately bringing home a 6th place state medal! Also joining us was Kimber Littlepage, who qualified for state as well. Although she didn’t compete this time—since her IDA partner had already qualified—we were proud to have her with us as part of the team and to celebrate her achievement in qualifying. Congratulations to all of our performers on your hard work, dedication, and for representing our school so well on the state stage! It's always a great day to be an Indian!
Come support the OHS Cheer team tomorrow!
Dear Parents/Guardians,
We will be offering free sports physicals on May 7th, 2025, at the Oswego Junior Senior High School. These are available for all 5th-11th grade students who are interested in doing any sporting events for the 2025-2026 school year.
Students will be bringing home a pre-participation physical evaluation form along with a patient information sheet that will need to be filled out and signed by you. If your child brings these back they may turn them into the front office or they can bring them in on the day of the physical.
Please be advised that if they do not bring the forms back or if they are not signed by you they will not be able to partake in the physicals.
If you have any questions please feel free to contact Fern Vail, District Nurse at 620-795-4541 or email fvail@usd504.org.
Thanks,
Fern Vail RN

We had an amazing time hosting the College & Career Fair for students in grades 7-12 at Oswego Jr./Sr. High! 🎓✨
In partnership with Rural Outreach Education, this event provided students with a fantastic opportunity to explore various colleges, career paths, and future opportunities. It was a day of inspiration, learning, and connecting with professionals and educational institutions that can help guide their next steps. 🏫💼
A huge thank you to all the colleges, businesses, and organizations who participated.

Last week was filled with laughter, friendly competition, and meaningful connections at our Game Night Mentoring Event! 🕹️
Students had the chance to hang out with their mentors, play some exciting games, and learn valuable lessons along the way. 🤝 Whether it was gaming strategies or life advice, everyone walked away with a little more knowledge and a lot of new memories!
Thank you to all the mentors for your time and guidance, and to the students for making the night so enjoyable! Also a big thank you to Elm Acres Grant for making this program a possibility!

We will take the next couple weeks off from archery practice. We are in the process of finding out who all can go to Nationals. When we know who can go we will make plans to start practice up again. Will communicate practice schedule when we find out.
Parents,
I am really looking forward to the state tournament tomorrow. I would like to take this time to thank each and every one of you for your continued commitment to the archery program. I sincerely hope you know how much I truly appreciate your willingness to make sure your kids are at these tournaments. I wish all of you safe travels to the tournament. I am really looking forward to the tournament and the opportunity our kids have before them.
There will be two booths set up at the tournament. The first one I want to mention is the Kansas Wildlife and Parks booth. The second one is the Kansas BowHunters Association booth. The first one helped write us a grant to help with the purchase of the 3D targets. The second one donated money to help purchase the 3D targets. We would not have been able to purchase them and host a 3D tournament without their help. Please make a point of having your child stop by and thank them for their generosity. I know it would mean a bunch to both of them.
Thank you and I look forward to seeing all of you tomorrow.
This month, our 8th & 10th grade students had the exciting opportunity to participate in RealityU at Greenbush! 🎓✨ This hands-on experience allowed them to choose a career, marital status, and family situation, then challenge them to manage their finances with a real-life salary. Students quickly learned the importance of budgeting and balancing monthly expenses based on their life choices. What an eye-opening experience for their future! 💡💰 #RealityU #FinancialLiteracy #FutureLeaders
