| A message from the Athletic Director It has been an amazing start to the school year and I have enjoyed seeing so many Green Bear fans in attendance at sporting events both at home and away in support of our teams. Our first home football game is tonight, and as the community comes out to cheer on our Green Bears, I want to take a moment to remind everyone to demonstrate good sportsmanship and respect for our facilities. Respecting the officials, coaches, players, and opposing team visitors is an important part of creating a safe and supportive environment for our student-athletes. It is also important for the safety of young children that they are supervised while attending OHLS athletic events. Also, please be sure to leave our facilities in good condition by throwing away any trash from concession purchases. We want our opponents that visit Ottawa Hills to be left with a positive impression of our district and village and want to make it a place that our visitors want to return to. Thank you, and we look forward to a great fall season of Green Bear athletics! -Ryan Wronkowicz, Athletic Director |

| Driving down costs This week OHLS purchased a used bus for $5,000 from another school district. This second bus in the OH fleet will provide additional transportation support for students competing in athletic and extracurricular events, as well as field trips. Previously the district relied on contracting with a third party to assist in transportation needs. The addition of this bus will save the district an estimated $10,000 per year. |
