Intro to Agriculture students are getting the hang of welding and closed out the semester by learning new skills and enjoying exciting first-time experiences. In Plant Science, students practiced transplanting seedlings and separating and repotting pups.
Big weekend for Seminole basketball! The Lady Seminoles competed in the Helena Holiday Classic and earned a dominant 54–9 win over Helena. The senior high boys also brought home a victory at the Bank OZK John Stanton Classic, defeating the E Stem Mets 62–52.

Holiday cheer filled OHS today as staff and teachers gathered for a Christmas celebration. The highlight of the day was gifting each team member a custom jacket, a small token of appreciation and a big symbol of Seminole pride. We are grateful for our OHS family and the commitment they show to our students and school community every day.
