Had the honor of spending one last day of "school" together with these seniors. They've come a long way in their four years at OHS and have a lot to be proud of. They ended their freshman year with the unknowns of Covid, went through two interesting years dealing with it affects and then flourished as seniors. Hope everyone can attend the graduation ceremony on Sunday at 1pm to celebrate! In the meantime enjoy some pictures from their senior trip.
