“We're doing everything we can to bridge that gap and to get everybody reading on grade level, whether they're in third grade or a senior in high school."

Students, staff and families gathered to honor graduating seniors at celebrations across our city. We are #OPSProud to celebrate our students' incredible accomplishments!

North High and Westview High academies and pathways recieve national recognition, and a school community shows up in a big way for a graduating senior in this month's edition.

"It not only shows that North is growing, but the hard work of all these individuals put into making it the best program it can possibly be."

Buena Vista High student Trent Burton's life was upended by a medical emergency. With the support of school staff, friends and family, he's preparing to walk across the stage at graduation.

Both programs earned the highest level of recognition from the National Career Academies Coalition.

The honor highlights the culture of support and belief in music education cultivated across our district in classrooms, rehearsal spaces and onstage.
