Seventy Oran Elementary students earned an extra recess today as a reward for making their 4th Quarter AR goals.
Science has never tasted so good! 👩🔬🥞 Mrs. Daniel’s Chemistry classes visited the FACS lab today to study thermodynamics. By observing the Maillard reaction while making pancakes, students connected how heat affects chemical reactions using real-world culinary skills.
New Look. Same Spirit.

Huge congratulations to this outstanding young man, Fletcher Shoemaker! 🎶🏅
His hard work, dedication, and passion truly paid off. Earning a Gold rating at the MSHSAA State Musical Festival is no small achievement, and his exceptional performance is something to be incredibly proud of. He showed up, delivered, and shined!
Wishing this young man continued success this is just the beginning of many amazing accomplishments ahead!

STAR Testing Growth “Sip Sip Hooray” Party was a blast! 🎉
Our 1st grade students completed STAR testing three times this week to monitor their end-of-year progress. They took the STAR Early Literacy assessment (covering phonemic awareness, phonics, vocabulary, print concepts, and early math), STAR Math, and STAR Reading (focused on comprehension, vocabulary, and text analysis).
We are so proud of the tremendous growth they’ve shown—it was definitely worth celebrating!

Student Council reward trip to St. Louis Aquarium and lunch at The Foundry. This wonderful group of students participated in many community service projects, concession stands, and hosted a dance for the junior high students. I could not have asked for a better group of kids and look forward to what the 26-27 school year brings for OHS Stuco!

What inspired you to start teaching?
My mom was my teacher so I grew up around the school and the profession. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do in college but I chose teaching because I had been around it for my entire life and I've never looked back since.
What do you love most about working with your students?
Seeing students grow throughout the years.
What's a fun fact your students might not know about you?
I do not like scary movies.
What's one word you'd use to describe my classroom?
If you ask the students, they'd say "cold."
If you could give your students one piece of advice to carry with them, what would it be?
Don't wish everything away. Enjoy each day one class at a time, it goes by quick.

What inspired you to start teaching?
My high school English teacher, who was also my basketball coach, inspired me to become a teacher and a coach. She had very high standards in the classroom and on the court but there was never a time where I doubted that she cared about me. Seeing how she used genuine relationships to teach us, inspired me to follow in her footsteps. I want to be the kind of teacher and coach who leaves that same lasting impact.
What do you love most about working with your students?
The thing I love about teaching is when I get to see the expression on a student's face when they know they’ve succeed. Sometimes things don’t come easy in my classroom and my students have to work a littler harder than most, so when I get to see how proud they are of themselves, even for a small success, it is truly the best thing!
What's a fun fact your students might not know about you?
I used to run 2-3 miles a day but after having kids, I developed an allergy to any kind of high impact exercising--I get hives and my eyes swell shut! So now I have to stick to walking. I have a lot of other weird allergies, but being allergic to cardio is the weirdest.
What's one word you'd use to describe your classroom?
One word I would use to describe my classroom: Welcoming
If you could give your students one piece of advice to carry with them, what would it be?
One piece of advice I would give my students: Don't wait for a hero to come save you when you can be your own hero.
