Tomorrow it's Baked Potato Day @ OMS & OHS! Potatoes are a great source of complex carbs, providing long-lasting energy, and the protein-packed toppings add the perfect balance for active students. The added options of veggies & fruits, fresh baked dinner rolls, & a milk make this a well-rounded, nutritious meal that will surely keep students fueled throughout the day. As a bonus at OHS, having the Grab'n Go or Salad Bar lunches as an alternative to hot lunch is always a great touch for those who need something quick!

👣 A Walk Through Time in Oostburg! 🏛️
Our 3rd graders recently took a fascinating walking tour of Oostburg’s Center Avenue, from 9th Street to 10th Street, comparing the past with the present! 🔍✨
📸 In the first pair of photos, students stood where Judi’s Restaurant is today, pointing up to where the red and white steeple of the old Christian Reformed Church once stood. ⛪️
📸 In the second pair, students explored the corner of Center Ave and 10th Street, where the Oostburg State Bank once stood. 💰🏦
📸 And in the third, they sat between the train tracks and the Pizza Ranch parking lot, where the train depot once welcomed travelers to town. 🚂🍕
Now it’s their turn! Each student has been tasked with giving their families a historical walking tour of downtown Oostburg within the next month. 🗺️👨👩👧👦 We can’t wait to see history come alive through their eyes!

What an awesome event! For the elementary fun run this year, the entire community came together to support Oostburg Elementary School. Mrs. Stultz and the 3rd grade team ran a t-shirt design contest for the kids with the theme of "Choose Kind." Fiona and Lucca created the winning design that you see here. We had a generous community member who is in support of the Choose Kind theme offered to pay for shirts for the entire staff and student body at OES. We are now offering that shirt to the public! If you are interested in ordering the Oostburg Elementary School's Choose Kind shirt please order here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe8i7_PheCA_LrCMKNJ9SL5EDiOwBSqvWnvo-ggw4l1tyqFfw/viewform and drop your $15 off per shirt in an envelope with your name to any of the school district offices by THIS FRIDAY...10/25. Thank you for supporting Oostburg Elementary School!
