Congratulations to OMS and OHS Fox Friday winners from May 23, 2025! These students were nominated by staff members or other students for demonstrating the Fox Four (Safety, Responsibility, Respect, or Positivity).
Staff members were nominated by students or other staff members for being a role model, an advocate for students, or having a positive connection with students.
Students in Mrs. Morse's Culinary Arts class just recently ran a food truck service as their capstone project for the class. "Stars and Stripes" was open for business on Friday, May 16 from 11:00-1:00 and served 40 customers. Their menu consisted of a combo plate lunch of Pulled Pork Sandwiches or Grilled Chicken Sandwiches with a side of Bacon Pasta Salad or Fruit Salad. Guests enjoyed a dessert of Poppy's Chocolate Chip Cookie Sandwiches to fulfill their sweet tooth.
For the 2024-2025 school year, we would like to introduce/share about as many staff members as possible, as everyone has an integral role in our school community.
Staff were asked to share about themselves using a "6 word summary." Read on to learn a bit more about our OHS Literacy and Social Studies teachers!
Tomatoes from Space
Omro High School Plant Club collected data for the Tomatosphere Project. We were sent two packets of tomato seeds: one contained seeds that spent two months on the international space station and the other contained normal, earth-bound seeds. We germinated both types of seeds and sent the results (germination rates) back to project scientists. Tomatosphere seeks to gather data on the effects of space travel on seeds. Plant club members will be able to take home the tomato plants for their own gardens. Omro Foxes are proud to contribute to scientific research.
Join us tonight, Tuesday, May 20, at 6:30 pm, for the Spring Choir Concert. This event will showcase the hard work of our choir students in grades 6-12. The event begins at 6:30 pm and will be in the OHS Performing Arts Center.
Omro High School selects a senior student each month to be the Student of the Month. Seniors are selected for their academic successes, leadership abilities, citizenship, and extracurricular activities. The seniors who are selected for this honor are also invited to attend an American Legion meeting for recognition by the sponsoring organization and may go on the ballot to be a graduation speaker.
The May Student of the Month is Holly.
Throughout high school, Holly has been involved in Basketball, Track and Field, Cross Country, National Honor Society, Key Club, Student Council, Spanish Club, and Sources of Strength. She can also be found volunteering her time through participation in Red Cross Community Blood Drives, Highway Cleanups, Food Drives, Hygiene Drives, Shopping Day with Kids, H.B. Patch Field Day, Milis Strong Track meet, Form the Family Christmas Crusade, and Toy Drives.
Outside of school, Holly enjoys reading, watching her favorite movies, being outdoors, traveling, baking, playing sports, and being with family and friends.
After graduation, she plans to continue her education at UW Eau-Claire, majoring in Nursing.

On Friday, May 9, Key Club hosted their final blood drive of the school year.
We are excited that we met our goal of over 100 pints donated, which provides an opportunity to recognize a graduating senior with a scholarship.
Many thanks to the Red Cross for all their help and support! Additionally, thank you to all community and student donors for making this possible and helping save lives!
Watch for an announcement for the date of our July blood drive.
