Oak Hill Union Local Schools

Attention Senior Parents and Students......

Are you worried about paying for college?

If your answer is yes, then please come to the Financial Aid Night at OHHS!

The 2011 Gallia, Jackson, Vinton District FCCLA Meeting was held on December 14th at the University of Rio Grande.  This year’s state theme is “Lead Serve, Impact - Walk the Path of FCCLA.”  Oak Hill was represented by Marissa Ferrel as District Secretary and Allison Snodgrass as Program Chair.  Over 130 FCCLA members attended from the three county area. 

Dr. Ken Porada, Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs, greeted the students on behalf of the University of Rio Grande.  The program feature was Eric Johnson, a motivational speaker.  Eric gave a custom presentation featuring the FCCLA state theme.

Specialized workshops for students were held in small group sessions.  Featured topics included career planning, distracted driving, stress relief, cyber bullying, “drunken goggles,” recycling, and financial knowledge games.

Members attending felt the event was very successful and want to encourage high school FCCLA members to attend next year.

Congratulations to Kynlee Denney, a kindergarten student at OHES, who is the mid-January "Healthy Wealth" winner.  Students receive "Healthy Wealth" for demonstrating healthy behaviors while at school.  She was awarded "Wealth" by Mrs. Joye Adkins for sneezing in her elbow.  Great job Kynlee and Mrs. Adkins!  Pictured (from left to right) are OHES teacher's aide Angie Hilderbrant, Kynlee Denney, and teacher Joye Adkins.
