OCES Students of the Week! Ellie Spence Billie Richardson Ava Hughes Myla Flannery & Aubrielle Marshall

Happy Constitution Day!! Mrs. Begley's 5th grade Social Studies student's are building Constitution lapbooks that when compleated will have every part of the constitution inside. "Constitution Day is an American federal observance that recognizes the adoption of the United States Constitution and those who have become U.S. citizens. It is normally observed on September 17, the day in 1787 that delegates to the Constitutional Convention signed the document in Philadelphia."




It is with heavy hearts that we are reporting the passing of a beloved “honorary owl” Mr. James Reid Smith. Better known as “Jim”. Jim and the Simpsonville Christian Church have supported our community and our OCES classrooms for around 15 years. Jim & his longtime friend Hobi particularly would visit with Mrs. Holly Wilder’s 3rd & 4th grade classes. Their church has donated food and items like school supplies for many years and even donated to our Family Resource center in 2022 for flooding victims. We are forever grateful for their kindness and we share in their sadness of losing their family member. Please join us as we pray for their healing and comfort in this difficult time.

Reminder that our schools are nut free due to severe allergies. This covers more than just peanut butter. Please do not send snacks, lunches or candy that could cause serious harm to students.
