The First Baptist Church of Okeene and OHS Fellowship of Christian Athletes hosted breakfast yesterday for students in honor of national "See You at the Pole". Students at schools all across America annually gather at their school’s flagpole on the fourth Wednesday in September to pray for their schools, friends, teachers, government, and nation. Prayers and fellowship are student led. Several Okeene students joined together in prayer before beginning their school day.
Breakfast at the Book Fair is TOMORROW morning from 7:30am-8:00am! The book fair will also be open after school during P/T Conferences. 📚

OHS Gifted and Talented 10th-12th grade toured Mountain Country Foods today. The tour was informative, educational, and enlightening. We want to give a HUGE shout-out to Mr. Dixon and his crew! They taught us about running a business, career opportunities, and what it takes to be successful. It was a great trip and we are thankful for all they have done and continue to do for us! (We LOVED the insulated cups)
