It's hard to believe today was the last day of the 21-22 school year! The last couple of weeks have been filled with activities, field trips, field days, yearbook signings, and farewells district-wide. As the school year closes, we want to remind you of the OHPS summer happenings.

Our FREE Summer lunch program will begin on June 21 and go through August 18 and is completely free for all children 18 years and under. Locations, times, and menus are posted on our website! The Sno-Isle Bookmobile will also be heading to our summer sites. Click here for a list of Bookmobile locations and dates.

We also have our OHPS Summer Camps and Community Outreach Activities for students entering grades 1-8. Several camps still have openings! Please check here for availability.
