School will start Wednesday, Aug. 25.

When OJH students receive their schedules, they will be able to enter their Timber Google Classrooms and use the self-guided School Supply List Form. Please note students must be logged into their school email accounts in order for this to work, but we hope that it will greatly simplify our process from what it has been in the past. We hope you like it!

The website is a great place to find information about these activities. There will be an Activities Fair on the front lawn at the beginning of the year, watch the morning announcements for information.

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. 

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. 

If you are tardy, you are to report to Mrs. McCray in the Attendance/Athletic Office which is the first door to the right when you enter the junior high main entrance. 

If you can’t get your locker open or you have forgotten your combination just ask any nearby teacher or come to the Junior High office and someone will be happy to help you. 

If you think you have a serious problem with your schedule – maybe you’re in the wrong type of math class or you’re in band instead of orchestra – then you need to speak to the counselor, Miss. Waugh. 

If you can’t find the answer to your question, someone in the Junior High office will be happy to help you.
