Our OHE Robotics Team competed in the Russellville Winter Robotics Tournament this past weekend. They tweaked their bot after almost every match to make it perform more consistently. They worked and strategized with other teams to gain the most points! The team came back to implement some of the ideas they saw be successful at the tournament! Congrats to our team for their hard work!

Annie the Guinea pig has been a member of OHE for 9 years! She passed away on Thursday, January 30th of old age and natural causes. She brought joy to many students over the years in Mrs. Monk’s classroom, Mrs. McGahee's classroom, and the Science lab. Her adorable face and cute squealing will be missed. She spent her last days eating her favorite fresh fruits and vegetables and getting lots of attention. ❤️

Congratulations to the OHE January Student of the Month, Aaron Paz! Aaron is in Mrs. Hudson's kindergarten class.🤩
On Jan 18, our All Star Robotics team attended a competition in Little Rock. They exhibited respect in each interaction with others and by waiting patiently for their turn, perseverance when things didn’t go as planned but not giving up, learning from mistakes to make the bot work better next time, and teamwork when they encouraged and celebrated each other!! We even had a member who wasn’t going to drive feel so encouraged that they ended up giving it a try and did so well!! It was such a fantastic meet!!
