OCS Calendar Update
At the March 8th Board of Education meeting, the Board unanimously approved that Friday, April 2, 2021 is now a Student Holiday/Teacher Workday. Around 750 teachers and support staff will be able to receive the second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine on this day - the Friday before Spring Break. The 2020-2021 School Calendar has been updated to reflect this change.
