Social media offers a chance to choose how we present ourselves to the world. We can snap and share a pic in the moment or carefully stage photos and select only the ones we think are best. Listen as students reflect on how this impacts their lives. http://bit.ly/Oly2DFV4

Lots of students are exploring and developing their own identities, and they often do this online and on social media. Some kids use multiple accounts, each for a different audience, but with this, what’s real and what’s unrealistic can often get blurred. In this video, your kids can hear other teens talk about the ins and outs of presenting themselves to others online, and consider what it means to “be yourself” in digital spaces.

The OHS cross country teams ended their season in fine fashion yesterday at the IHSA 1A State meet at Detweiller Park! This was the 7th year in a row that the Lady Spartans have advanced to the state meet. With no seniors on the team, the future looks great for these gals. They placed 22nd out of the 30 teams that qualified for the meet. The seven runners included freshman Amelia Kistner (season best 21:39), sophomore Rachel Andris (21:08), freshman Raquel Birky (season best 20:58), junior Madison Bales (all-time best 20:31), junior Abby Litwiller (20:21), junior Anna Bieber (season best 19:59), and junior Chrystal Cornwell (all-time best 19:46).
Finishing 8th place, our boys’ team is on a 4-year streak of qualifying for the state meet. Unlike the girls’ team, the majority of the runners (5 out of 7) were seniors. The seven guys included senior Brad Schardan (all-time best 18:21), freshman Cooper Phillips (season best 17:59), sophomore Caden Clark (all-time best 16:50), senior Anthony Ragland (season-best 16:30), senior Carter Phillips (16:24), sophomore Logan Demling (all-time best 16:05), and senior Owen Dare (all-time best 15:50).
Congrats to all for another outstanding XC season!
Coach Hoskins, Coach Stine, and the entire XC team would like to thank everyone for all of the support that we’ve been given by so many parents and fellow students. It was really awesome to see so many of you at the state meet. Thank you!
