On Thursday night, family and friends were treated to the OJH Choir Spring Concert. The night started with the sixth-grade treble chorus. They sang a wonderful mix of solos, duets and group pieces. The 7/8 grade treble choir presented their 3 contest pieces. The high school mixed chorus also presented their contest music and added a contest solo as well. The choir would like to thank everyone that attended and supported the evening.

Check out our 8th graders showing off their cell organelle projects!
Students chose a project from a choice board and created amazing models and presentations to show what they learned about cell organelles.
Their creativity and effort really brought the cell to life—great job, y’all! 👏

Congratulations to Orangefield Junior High students Kaysen Court and Logan Campbell for earning the fourth six-week period's "Awesome Attendance Awards"!
Any student with two or fewer absences during the six-week grading period is eligible for the first attendance award. Kaysen maintained exceptional attendance and will receive a laptop for his consistent positive presence!
The second award recognizes a student from the grade level with the highest overall attendance. Our 8th grade class edged out the 6th and 7th grades in a VERY tight race. Logan, an 8th grader with outstanding attendance, is taking home a drone for his dedication to learning.
Great job, Kaysen and Logan !
