Dear OHS Families/Parents/Guardians,
It is always bittersweet to end the school year. We are so lucky to have been able to end with so many fun filled activities. It is great to have families back in the building and our learning community doors open to visitors!
To our PTA… I am so proud! Words cannot express my appreciation. I look forward to our continued work together as we challenge ourselves and our students to set the highest standards and achieve our ambitious goals.
To my amazing EAGLES of Orchard Hills Elementary School… Thank you for all your hard work throughout the school year. I am so honored to be your principal. I would like to wish you all the very best summer vacation possible, and I look forward to welcoming you all back, refreshed, for what will be an exciting, new academic year. Until next school year, here’s wishing you love, laughter and learning.
With Eagle Pride,
Mrs. Scionti
OHS Flag Day Celebration
Our learning community enjoyed singing and coming together in celebration around our flag pole.
The 5th Grade Egg Drop
Some eggs survived the drop and some did not. Students thought about their designs and what changes they would make to them if they did it again! A great time was had by all.
