In July our FSA scores were released and once again Oviedo High School students performed at the highest level. We are an A school for an incredible 17 th time! Our Advanced Placement scores also came to us in July. We are proud to announce that our students, with the assistance of our teachers, achieved at the highest level. College Board reports that 75% of our AP students scored a 3, 4, or 5 on their AP exams. This incredible 75% pass rate far exceeds the district, state and the global averages. We sincerely appreciate the outstanding efforts and dedication of our students and terrific teachers. To complement our successful academic programs, Oviedo High School has excellent athletic and fine arts programs available to your child as well. Please refer to this issue with all the important dates and reminders to help you plan your school year. We invite you to become active participants in all we do with our programs. We believe there is a strong correlation between academic success and extracurricular involvement with our students. Oviedo High School offers a wide range of activities from sports and clubs to community service. We encourage you to become a member of our booster clubs, PTSA, School Advisory Council, or Dividends. Skyward Family Access is a valuable tool providing access to real time grades and attendance. Please check it frequently and stay on top of your student s progress and remind them to study.

Please review with your student what is needed each day for school in order to stop the need for dropping off materials. W e appreciate your understanding and full cooperation. Good News! Beginning with the 2018-2019 school year, OHS will be using a new cloud-based software program called Hero. Hero gets students in class on time while changing negative attendance patterns. It motivates students to make good choices, more often, through positive behavior reinforcement. Accountability, responsibility, and a drive to do what s right - these are life skills that can be taught in school using tools that improve student behavior. Tools like Hero that can elevate student growth, and usher in a more positive climate, campus-wide. As we begin the implementation of this new software program, parents will begin receiving notifications if their child is tardy to class. Partner with us and support our efforts as we roll out this new system. Freeze Time Students are not to be dismissed from class for any reason the first 10 or last 10 minutes of class. This is considered FREEZE TIME on campus. O-Glow It s back, and better than ever! O-Glow is an epic celebration for a great start of the first semester of the school year!
