Ovid-Elsie Area Schools

The Tennis & Soccer matches scheduled for today have been postponed due to the heat index.

As we return from summer break, our schools invite you to join us in reviewing our core expectations: be respectful, be responsible, and be your best. Our commitment to these values helps create a positive and inclusive learning environment for everyone. Please find more information at our PBIS website: www.ovidelsie.org/pbis

Attention parents of high school seniors. HS Yearbook is only accepting centered head and shoulder shots of seniors without props this year for publication. If you are unsure what is acceptable, you can send more than one photo. We prefer a dark background, but outdoor pictures are acceptable as long as the background does not distract from the subject. The deadline is March 27th.
