Band parents: If your student had a personally-owned instrument that was stored/left in the music room this summer, please let us know asap. We need to know by 3:00 pm tomorrow, Friday, July 25th. Please email Mrs. Spotts at hspotts@orangevillecusd.com with this information. Thank you!
Our custodial staff is currently cleaning the boys locker room and have discovered more items left behind. These items are on the training table and another table on the sports side. They will be left for pick up until the end of football camp next week. After that, items will either be donated or thrown away.
An informational night will be held on Monday, August 4th, 2025, at 6:00 pm in the Fieldhouse for ALL JH/HS students and parents/guardians participating, or thinking about participating, in any extracurricular activities . Also, if no parent/guardian is able to attend, the family must follow a link, (to be posted after the meeting on the 4th) and sign all required paperwork. All information and paperwork must be viewed and signed prior to students being able to participate in the first day of practice.
This is a reminder that all athletes planning on playing JH and HS sports this year need a sports physical before they can participate (6 and 9 graders need FULL regular physicals and those will count for sports as well). The football and volleyball season begins August 11th.
A week from Sunday, on August 3rd, 13:16 Ministries will be having their annual Back to School Bash on the football field. It begins at 11 am with a community worship service. Then 12 - 2 pm, there will be food and fun! Also, every elementary student will receive a backpack filled with school supplies. We hope to see you there!
Check out the school supply lists for this fall 2025-26 by clicking here: https://5il.co/3m5a6 Also, another reminder that current parents will receive an email when online registration in Skyward is ready. Thank you!
Our JH/HS science teacher, Mr. Fahs, visited Mrs. Goeke's class this spring, and he brought his lovely ball python Nagini with him! He shared common misconceptions and myths about snakes, answered questions about her, and the students even got to touch her. (She's very friendly!)
Here's a reminder to keep logging your activity for FHN Miles and Minutes to help the school earn money. The program continues through August 24, so you have a lot of time for your healthy habits to help us be competitive! For more information: https://www.fhn.org/walk_welcome.asp
In May, Mrs. Brown's class went to Lake Le-Aqua-Na, where they were able to fish, hike, paint, make a tracking book, play kickball, and make s'mores. We have some nature lovers here! Big thanks to those who helped: Mrs. Kraft, Mrs. Schultz, Mr. Wilson, and Mr. Schneiderman.
Football camp registration was due today, but coach will still accept them. Bring to coach or the HS office. However, we cannot guarantee the camp t-shirt size you would like. Camp forms were linked in the summer sport info here: https://www.orangevillecusd.com/article/2243329
Due to circumstances outside our control, the Board of Education meeting originally scheduled for Monday, July 14, 2025, will be moved to Monday, July 28, 2025, at 5:30 pm. Thank you
We hope you're having a great summer! Thank you to our yearbook sponsors!
A reminder to parents: We are switching systems from Infinite Campus to Skyward this summer. While you can still view past information in your Infinite Campus parent portal, this is not where you will register. When Skyward is ready for registration, you will receive an email.
Today, Friday, July 4, 2025, Orangeville School District offices will be closed for the Independence Day federal holiday. Have a safe and happy day!
Mrs. Goeke's class went on a field trip to the Cave of the Mounds in May. There they toured the cave, learned about rocks and minerals, then got to go sluicing for their own rocks, minerals, and fossils. Back at school, they took geodes outside to crack them open and see if there were pretty crystals inside. What a fun trip!
In April, CHOM (the Children’s Hands On Museum in Freeport), brought the Star Lab to the elementary school to teach us about space. The students really enjoyed the experience - Check out the views from inside! A thank you goes out to the PTO, who sponsored this event.
This is a reminder that we are hosting FHN at the school for sports physicals tomorrow (6/24/25) evening from 5 - 7 pm. If your child is planning to play a sport this year, this physical will fill the requirement. However, students going into grades 6 and 9 will need full physicals and this does not count for that requirement. Though parents are not required to be present for the exam, forms must be signed by a parent ahead of time. Those forms can be found on the FHN website: https://www.fhn.org/sports-physicals-area.asp and will also be available at the school offices.
We hope you have enjoyed our graduate spotlights this year. We wish the Class of 2025 all the best!
