Adoption Days are on! We are excited to see who else gets to adopt in the coming weeks. Great job to our new pet owners!






Our OCMS Owls had a strong showing on the road tonight against district rival Powell County. Our 6th, 7th and 8th grade teams are all coming home with another big road win. Proud of their effort and teamwork. Great job, Owls!



Legos & Literacy was a fun night at OCES! Thanks to all who came and the groups that made this possible!










Guess who’s coming to LEGO & Literacy Night?
Frank the Turkey! 🦃📚
Our very own “Frank” will be waddling in for pictures, high-fives, and a whole lot of laughs.
Bring the kids, build some LEGOs, enjoy a good book, chat with us, and snap a picture with Frank before he flies away!
We hope to see you there!

Our first round of Reading Buddies are waiting to see who adopts them! Kinder students who have mastered all letters and their sounds get to adopt a baby hamster to listen to them read.

Who is excited for Lego & Literacy Night?! 5:00 today at OCES, doors open by the gym at 4:45!

Ms. Peggy Gentry’s family was presented with a plaque of appreciation for her 43 years of dedicated service to Owsley County Schools. Her steady presence, care and commitment made a lasting impact on generations of students and supported countless staff members along the way. Her work helped shape a school community that is stronger because of her.

Monday evening!

Congratulations to, Aubrielle Marshall! She received a positive referral for her wonderful manners and being so helpful! Great job!

October perfect attendance drawing for OCMHS.

Happy World Kindness Day. Our schools are full of small moments that make a big difference, and today is a good reminder that kindness is one of the most powerful things we can teach. Thank you to our students and staff for creating a place where kindness grows.
Take a moment today to share a kind word, lend a hand, or do something small that makes someone feel seen.

School teams work with KY Department of Education on Positive Behavior Support Systems to improve school climate and safety.
