🛠️🔨 Building Skills & Community in Oregon City! 🔨🛠️

Our talented woodshop students teamed up with all 5th graders across the Oregon City School District for an exciting hands-on project—building toolboxes together!

A big thank you to Ms. Gilbert and Ms. Inglish for leading our woodshop students and organizing this incredible collaboration. Not only did students learn valuable woodworking skills, but they also built confidence, teamwork, and connections across grade levels.

Growth doesn’t happen all at once.
 It happens day by day.

Here in OCSD62, we believe each and every student is worth it. We believe they can do it! Our passion and purpose are rooted in helping students learn, grow, and thrive. And research shows what we see every day: attendance matters.

Even one missed day means missed learning, missed connections, and missed confidence-building moments.

We’re Here for It.

We’re here for their questions.

We’re here for their hard days.

We’re here for their future.

If getting to school is hard right now — reach out. Our school teams are here to provide support for your student!

Robotics Skynet Team 2550 went to the Oregon Capitol to speak with our state legislators! What an amazing job the four students did representing the team. We are incredibly proud of them. Ethan, Max, Noah, and Evan met with multiple legislators, including the Senate President and the Senate President Pro Tempore.

🥎It was a beautiful, sunny day to celebrate something special for our students and community! ☀️

Yesterday we officially opened our newly turfed softball field at Oregon City High School with a ribbon cutting ceremony. Members from our softball team and local softball community joined us for this celebration, as well as school board members, bond team members, and Community Bond Oversight Committee members!

OCHS Softball players then held their first practice on the new turf surface.

This project is one of several in the fields and grounds updates being worked on in phase 1 of our 2025 capital bond projects. Other projects in this phase include new turf installations at the OCHS varsity baseball field and the multipurpose field directly behind OCHS.

The new turf creates a safer, more durable playing surface that will allow for more consistent practices, games, and outdoor learning opportunities throughout the year—rain or shine.

We’re grateful for the support of our community and look forward to more celebrations as the rest of our projects are completed. These are your bond dollars at work!

Every day counts. Showing up helps build confidence, connection, and opportunity.

We know some days are harder than others. When students are able to be here, we’re glad to see them—and we’re here to support them along the way.

Show up. Level up. We’re here for it. We're here for you.
