OJSHS just activated the SafeDefend alarm system as part of an end-of-the-year drill. The drill went as planned and everything remains normal at OJSHS.
There will be JH Track Parent Meeting on Monday, March 6th at 6:00 in the OJSHS commons. It is encouraged for each family to bring one case of water to be used during track meets (we have around 80 kids out for this season).
We had a minor "flare-up" fire in the shop today which was put out even before the alarm sounded. Students evacuated and followed proper protocol. There was no damage and school resumed within just a few minutes.
In the interest of safety, all practices for this afternoon have been cancelled. The activity bus will not be running and all students should catch their normal bus for the ride home.

It is with regret that we announce that Yates Center has cancelled Friday night's varsity football game due to an insufficient number of players.

On Thursday, September 8th, the JH Football team will be conducting a Red/White Scrimmage in lieu of their game against Chetopa which had to be cancelled due to low numbers. The scrimmage will start at 6:00.
There will be no admission charge and the concession stand will be open for business. The scrimmage will be officiated and run as much like a normal game as possible. Come support our JH football players as they begin their 2022 season.
We have just been notified by authorities that the suspect is in custody and we all clear. All practices and activities can continue as scheduled.
OJSHS is currently on a lockdown, as is much of Oswego. With 3:30 practices scheduled for volleyball and football, we are advising those involved to NOT come to the school.
For those who utilize the activity bus, there is a change in the schedule this year. This fall, the activity bus will leave OJSHS at 6:00 arriving at the Parsons drop off at approximately 6:30. After everyone is picked up, the bus will next drop off at Service Valley and then McCune. Note that the bus cannot leave Parsons until all students are picked up. The same applies at the Service Valley stop. Please make sure someone is at the drop off location at the appropriate times to pick up their athletes. Thank You.
