Announcements are by Haileigh Helminiak and Carter Holtzbauer

As part of Inclusion Week, tomorrow is Hats Off to Inclusion! Wear your favorite hat to celebrate inclusion & show that everyone belongs here at our school. Let’s tip our hats to friendship, kindness, & making our school a place where everyone feels welcome! 

Tonight at 7:00pm there will be a Band Pre-Festival Concert @ the HS.

The 7th grade girls earned a hard fought win against Dundee. Lilly Pliska led the way with 15 points, attacking the basket and finishing at the rim, while Lilly Louden added 8 points, knocking down two big three pointers. Georgia Barth scored 4 points inside and Amelia Fairbanks added another 3. Rounding out the scoring for Onsted were Sophie King and Karis Brogan. Defensively, KateLyne Winters and Trinadee Escott were aggressive with numerous deflections, while McKenzie Dickinson and Miranda Parker controlled the paint and pulled down several key rebounds to help secure the victory. We are back in action on Wednesday at Hudson. 

Boys and Girls Track will begin on Monday March 30, 2026.  If interested in participating, please sign up in the office.  Practices run until 4:30 daily, and meets are on Tuesdays & Thursdays.

On the first day, we will meet in the cafeteria after school.  You must have a current physical on file to participate (NO exceptions to this rule), and be prepared for the weather with appropriate clothing & shoes.

Do not read below today!

Announcement for Wednesday, March 4

As we continue celebrating Inclusion Week, tomorrow is United in Spirit & Acceptance Day! Show your school pride & wear your school colors as we celebrate being united, welcoming, & supportive of everyone in our school community. Together, we shine brighter when we include & accept each other!

Announcement for Thursday, March 5

As part of Inclusion Week, tomorrow is You Can’t Take it Back – Show Kindness Day! 

Wear your shirt backwards to remind us that kind words & actions matter — once they’re said or done, you can’t take them back. Let’s celebrate spreading kindness & making our school a welcoming place for everyone!

Can’t wait to see all those backwards shirts around school!

🎉 Happy Birthday! 🎂
