OUR KIDS. OUR COMMUNITY. OUR FUTURE.
REFERENDUM 2024: After wrapping up 2020 referendum projects, the District began working on the next 10-Year Facilities Maintenance Plan. In 2023, the District conducted a Facility Study including an Existing Conditions Assessment and Educational Space/Capacity Analysis to determine the safety, accessibility, and conditions of our buildings and sites as well as the functional use of our spaces.
Portions of our buildings, including the building systems, equipment, furniture, and finishes within them, are original to the 1955 - 1999 construction and have exceeded life expectancy, requiring costly repairs that exceed our annual operating budget. Even our newest building, OES, is 25 years old and beginning to have normal maintenance issues due to age.
Though our staff does a phenomenal job maintaining our buildings, the costs associated with major building system improvements are extremely high. Much like a home, when the cost to repair exceeds the budget, borrowing funds for larger-scale improvements is necessary, and doing more at one time can save money.

The Omro High School Sources of Strength student group recently volunteered their time to run the children's games at the Waukau Chicken BBQ on June 9. With the help of their Advisors, they were able to provide a day of fun-filled games for the young children. Thank you for all the generous prize donations from staff, parents, & community. The day was a success!
Many of our students and staff have started their summer experience with summer school. We offer a wide range of classes, including Ducktastic Creations, which supports students in using Duct Tape to creatively create different projects.
Winnebago County Wheelchair Wash is taking place on Saturday, August 10, 2024. This looks like a great opportunity to get adaptive devices cleaned up and checked out! https://drive.google.com/file/d/1UiZ5tTjybEfDBoEfxsmNs_gyAGNfuNrO/view?usp=sharing
Sources of Strength planned an end-of-year event in which SOS Peer Leaders brainstormed healthy activities, teachers hosted those activities, and the entire student body participated 30 for a minute Fox Time. Students played flag football, made giant bubbles, colored with sidewalk chalk, read outside, and walked in nature. It was an opportunity to smile, celebrate the year, and enjoy being an Omro Fox.
Collaborative Wellness works extensively with the School District of Omro to support our students, families and staff.
