Winter is upon us! Waivers for Burke Mountain must be filled out and completed online by December 7th. We have 75 students skiing/riding with BCS this year! If students are not registered by Burke's due date, Burke will not let them attend with the school. Please reach out to Mrs. Burdick or Ms. Rosenbaum ASAP if you would like any help registering and be sure to check your email (including spam) for the original email sent out on November 14th. There was also a follow up email with step by step instructions for completing the process. It is always a bit hectic getting to the mountain, but once we are there it is an amazing time for our students to grow and enjoy the snow!

The Committee seeks input on the concept of a regional Elementary and Middle School to be constructed adjacent to the Lake Region High School.
The Committee will present an overview of this plan and alternatives, offer an opportunity for questions, and listen to feedback from attendees.
OCSU faces significant challenges that require the attention and cooperation of the community to address: the rising costs of education and the subsequent increases in taxation; the need to provide an excellent education for our students in safe, welcoming, and productive settings; the need to alleviate staffing shortages by providing a safe, sustainable, and enriching work environment; and to house our educational enterprise in school buildings that are efficient, functional, and cost-effective.
To meet these challenges, OCSU assessed the current state of our school buildings and facilities, considered the implications of forming a central middle school, and analyzed multiple scenarios involving the renovations of our buildings in combination with new construction. The architecture firm of Truex-Cullins was hired to assist in our analyses.
Truex-Cullins' work has shown that the least expensive option in the long term is to build a new regional elementary and middle school adjacent to Lake Region Union High School.
Whether to move in this direction will be the choice of the eligible voters of the seven towns that make up the Supervisory Union. This Forum will help educate these voters that ultimately shape the quality of education in our community.

This very important message is for students who are signed up to go to Burke Mountain for winter activities. On November 6, 2025, the students will be departing the school at 8:15 am to be fitted for their rental equipment. It is very important that students attend school this day. If students are absent, it is the parents’ responsibility to transport their child to Burke Mountain Sherburne Lodge on Saturday, November 8th or 15th between the hours of 9 am to 3 pm. If they do not attend one of these fittings Burke Mountain will not allow your child to attend, and they will stay at the school.
Thank you

For October, during Fire Safety & Prevention month, our PTCA delivered an "open vending machine" to the Orleans Fire Department as a token of our appreciation for their dedication, sacrifice and service to our community.
If you have suggestions of how we can support those "Outside the Owl's Nest", please email oesptca@gmail.com.
