Principal Corner
Next week is School Safety Week! A main priority here at OHS is to keep students safe, both physically and emotionally. Next week we'll be focusing on physical safety by practicing our different drills: fire, tornado, evacuation, medical, and lockdown. Be sure to ask your students if they know what to do in an emergency here at school!
We'll also be rolling out a new security procedure for our front office. All visitors will need to scan their ID to ensure they are safe to be in the school, and a photo nametag will be printed on the spot. For this to work for you, please be sure to check that your information in Infinite Campus is updated. There is more detailed information about this process later in the newsletter.
Enjoy the fall weather this weekend, and we'll see everyone on Monday!

Plainwell Football Game
Our student council planned a quick pep assembly to kick off our rival football game tonight!
Staff Appreciation
Our varsity volleyball team honored special staff members at the game on Tuesday.
Our continued efforts to enhance security to keep our students and staff safe will include the implementation of a new visitor sign-in procedure called Raptor. This is for those visiting and spending time in our buildings.
Starting next week, if you are visiting the school, you will stop at the main office as usual.
With this new system, we will scan your ID to create a Visitor ID Label.
This label will have your photo, name and location within the building that you are visiting.
This allows others in the building to immediately know you are a welcome visitor in the school and have been checked in at the office.
At the end of your visit, stop back in the main office to sign out.
With Raptor, IDs will be screened against the registered sex offender databases and a custom database created/maintained by each school that could include banned/restricted visitors, individuals with restraining orders, etc. Adding this level of security does not add a lot of time to the sign-in process, but will provide an added layer of safety and comfort.
