PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE
Spring Break is finally here! Though it is short, I hope you relax and have some quality family time. With the later start to the school year, students will still have 7½ weeks left in term IV when they return on Tuesday. This is an exciting time of the year that can get busy with banquets, Prom, sports, playoffs, etc. If your student is having trouble keeping up with school work, remember the Bear Den is available on Tuesday and Thursday after school. Teachers are there ready to assist your student with homework, studying for a test, etc. The Bear Den is available for students in all grade levels—and may be especially helpful for seniors who have “senioritis” and need to keep up with school work in order to finish strong and successfully graduate. And by the way…Graduation for OHS is Friday, May 31 at 10 AM at Mount Saint Mary’s in Emmitsburg, Maryland. On that day, students who attend school will participate in a study hall during the day as much of the staff attends the graduation ceremony in the morning and then returns to OHS in the afternoon following the ceremony. If you have a senior, please check the graduation portion of our school web site and the calendar for important dates for the last day of school, graduation practices and the Senior Awards Ceremony. Wishing you a restful and fun Spring Break!
