A huge thank you to our amazing volunteers who helped put together our new soccer goals for the playground! Because of the incredible support from our No Fuss Fundraiser, we were also able to add new mulch, a swingset, and ball bags filled with athletic equipment for each classroom to enjoy at recess.

We are so grateful for the generosity of our OCES families and community. What a fun way to wrap up an amazing school year!

Our final staff luncheon of the year was a huge success! Staff enjoyed a delicious brunch with eggs, cheese grits, bacon, and homemade biscuits.
