May 2023

Dear OGA Families,

We are in the last month of school! I know it is hard to believe that the year is nearly at a close and I am sure many of our students are ready for summer break.

We do have a very busy month ahead of us with Spring FAST PMs and EOCs taking place in these final days. Information about the testing dates are listed below and on our website calendar. Please remember to send your child to school on these days prepared with a good night's rest and a healthy breakfast. It is important not to schedule doctor appointments on these days so students can be focused and given the correct amount of time for each section of the test. Students should arrive on time with their OCPS issued device and charger. Devices should be fully charged, and they should restart it once they get to campus.

Lastly, to highlight the accomplishments of our fifth and eighth graders, OGA will celebrate with award ceremonies in our auditorium during the last week of school. Our 5th grade students will be awarded on Monday, May 22, at 9:00 a.m. We will celebrate 8th grade on Wednesday, May 24, at 9:00 a.m.
