OJH FAQs

When does school start this year?

Is there a set school supply list?

How do I ﬁnd out about co-curricular and extra-curricular activities?

How does the hour-long open lunch work?

At the beginning of the school year, our lunch offering will be the same as it was at the end of the school year: Free sack lunches will be available through the USDA program. These can be picked up daily outside the cafeteria. Students may also pack a lunch or go home during the lunch hour. In terms of seating, students who stay at school may eat outdoors (including the Portico and the stadium bleachers as long as the areas are kept clean), in the cafeteria, or in the west gym.

What if I’m sick or have an appointment?

How to Report an Absence

When your junior high student will be absent for a portion of the morning or the entire day, please telephone the Attendance Office (not the Jr. High Office) at 937-297-5330 before 8:30 a.m. If your student will be absent for a portion or the entire afternoon, please telephone before 1:00 p.m. The following information is requested at the time of the call: 1) name of the person making the call, 2) name of the student, 3) grade level, 4) specific reason for absence, and 5) anticipated duration of absence.

A student whose parent has not notified the school of an absence by telephone must submit a parental excuse note to the attendance office immediately upon his return to school or the absence will be considered unexcused.

Appointments During the School Day

If your child has a dental, medical, or other professional appointment, please send your child with a parental note prior to the appointment or call the attendance office at 937-297-5330 and state the time you would like to pick up your child for the appointment (not the appointment time). The Attendance Office will deliver an excuse slip to the student, which will excuse him/her from class at the appropriate time. The student may then leave the building to be picked up by the parent. You as a parent do not need to come into the building to “sign” your child out. Your child will come out and meet you at your car. Please make prior arrangements with your child for the pick up location. If the Attendance Office line is busy, there is an answering machine for you to leave your message regarding the early dismissal. This answering machine is monitored on a regular basis by Mrs. McCray.

Any attendance, late arrival, or early departure questions are all handled through the Attendance Office, not the Jr. High Office.

What if I’m late to school in the morning or coming back from lunch?

What do I do if I have a problem with my locker?

What if I have a problem with my schedule?

What if I have a question and I can’t find the answer, what should I do?

Speak up, Save lives, Your eyes and Ears Could Save Lives

Oakwood Schools is partnering with the Ohio Department of Education and the Ohio Department of Public Safety to provide an anonymous tip line that could prevent a school safety crisis. Calls and text to the tip line, 844-SaferOH (844-723-3764), are answered 24 hours a day by trained professionals who can help.

This tip line allows students and adults to anonymously share information with school officials and law enforcement officials about threats to student safety—whether that involves a threatened mass incident or harm to a single student.

If you see something or have concerns, say something. Don't wait until it's too late.
