Omro High School

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.

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!

Students in Mrs. Morse's Advanced Culinary Arts class are in the middle of their Bake Shop Unit. To learn more about cakes and decorating, they participated in a Cupcake Wars Competition. Based upon each team's chosen theme, they baked and decorated 12 cupcakes to set on a self-created display. Each display was judged by OHS Staff. The team earning the honor of "Cupcake Wars Champions" were the team of Bella, Maya, and Shayli who created "Surfside Sweets"-- vanilla cupcake filled with Smores flavors and topped with vanilla buttercream frosting.
