Whole Foods Market Foundation awarded @OAK_HCS the garden grant and we are incredibly grateful. The goal is to expand the school garden to better serve the community. @HenryCountyBOE @toi_mclaughlin @Wholefoodsfoundation @Lakanijones @AWellnessGuy #GrowingHealthyKids
A special THANK YOU to our Luella Cluster School Resource Officer (SRO) for taking time this week to read to some of our youngest OKE Owls!
Happy 1st Bosses day to our galvanizing leader Mrs. McLaughlin @toi_mclaughlin . You are appreciated, valued, and our number one cheerleader!
Can't let this day end without letting our very own "calm in the storm" MHWF know that she is both appreciated and cherished. Thank you for making sure that we do not neglect ourselves and that our owls own their feelings. @HCS_Wellness

When one Owl shines, we ALL celebrate! Our OKE staff came together for a fun-filled celebration honoring our amazing Teacher of the Year, Ms.Travicks! Lots of laughter, smiles, and OKE love as we celebrated excellence in education!
So proud of the work that our 5th grade team and @KMathisLeads is doing to ensure we remain a school on the rise by intentionally planning each week.
Collaboration in action! Our 5th-grade team is working together to annotate the Georgia Learning Plan, anticipate student misconceptions, and plan purposeful lessons for the week. Through intentional planning and shared expertise, our teachers are ensuring every lesson is aligned to the Georgia Standards, responsive to student needs, and designed for success! 💙💛🦉

Sometimes Ms. Holmes @HCS_Wellness reminds us to put the Chromebook and felt tip pens away and enjoy each other. No data, no scheduling, no emails... Just us laughing and snacking. Thank you Mr. Hebert for helping us be artists for a little while.
So very proud of our very own Mrs.Travicks. She's the true epitome of a team player and student advocate. This honor is well deserved .
"Through interactive lessons, strong student advocacy, and a focus on both academic and social-emotional needs, Tasia Travicks helps her students build confidence and achieve success. As a grade-level chair, mentor, and afterschool leader, she brings professionalism, dedication, and leadership to every part of the school community."
Stay tuned as we highlight our exceptional teachers and their commitment to providing a high-quality, world-class education for every student, leading up to the #2026TOTY ceremony on Sept. 24.
