This past Thursday, October 24th, OLHMS proudly hosted its 6th Annual High School Fair! This tradition, initiated by Mrs. Vanessa Follmar and the Counseling Department six years ago, continues to be a resounding success each year. The High School Fair aims to inspire our students and their families, guiding them toward new paths and endless possibilities for their futures. Families and students had the unique chance to connect in person with various high school representatives right at OLHMS. These interactions allowed them to ask questions, explore each school’s offerings, and get a glimpse of the exciting extracurricular opportunities available. Families left the event feeling more informed and confident about the choices ahead.
Avery, an 8th-grade student, shared, “I loved the high school fair becuase it gave me an opportunity to hear and learn more about my future high school!”
