This week’s Beyond the Classroom spotlight is on OCHS senior Talya Johnson!

OCHS senior Talya Johnson is getting a head start in health care! After earning her Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) certification under CTE teacher Ms. Shears, Talya now works at Dogwood Village of Orange County and gains hands-on experience alongside Orange County High School Athletics Trainer Ms. Stieler.

As an OCHS Girls Basketball player, Talya balances academics, athletics, and work while preparing for her next opportunity: an internship rotation with UVA!

From the classroom to the sidelines and beyond, Talya is turning her passion for health care into real-world experience and preparing for a bright future! 💙🧡

Big cheers for Orange County Parks & Recreation on this statewide recognition! 🏈💙🧡

Seeing our Gordon-Barbour Elementary School students charge through the Hornets’ tunnel captures what community partnerships can make possible. We’re proud to team up with OCPR and OCHS Hornets Football to give our students opportunities to play and make memories!

We're looking forward to next year's game!

Unionville Elementary School students and staff had an absolute blast immersing themselves in hands-on learning during this year's STEM Night! UES young learners stepped into the shoes of scientists and mathematicians, eagerly showing off their skills through exciting experiments and interactive problem-solving.

The Skydive Orange skydivers kicked off the evening in spectacular fashion, giving the event an unforgettable start! A special thank-you to their team and to the OCHS Robotics Club, whose impressive robot and drone demonstrations gave students a firsthand look at technology in action.

Big news, OC! 🧡💙🚧

Construction on the Hornet Innovation Center is officially underway!

The construction entrance is in place, and major earthwork is up next! What began as a vision more than 20 years ago is becoming a reality, one milestone at a time.

Today, Project Coordinator Marty Pitts, School Board Chair Mrs. Dawson, and School Board Member Mrs. Harrington had the opportunity to see this exciting milestone firsthand!

After more than two decades of planning and perseverance, it’s exciting to see this long-awaited vision taking shape. We look forward to sharing more milestones as construction progresses! Gilbane Building Faulconer Construction Company, Inc.

Our OCHS CNA students, led by Ms. Shears, hosted a blood drive last Friday, collecting 37 units of blood, enough to help save up to 111 lives! ❤️ First-time donors made up 69% of those who donated, and all were students and staff!

Thank you to the American Red Cross and everyone who came out and gave the gift of life by donating blood. We’re proud of our students for making a difference! 🧡💙

🗓️ Our next blood drive is April 16, 2027!
