STUDENT COUNCIL
High School Student Council members attended the Missouri Association of Student Council District meeting at Park Hill South H.S on October 4th.
"We were given new ideas on fundraising, community service projects, and much more. Now, we are excited to take what we have learned and start making positive changes around our school and community."
DRAMA CLUB
OHS Drama Club is for students 7-12 grade who are interested in theatre. Each fall we do a Halloween themed play in the basement black box theater. Each spring we do a musical in the high school auditorium. We also have our yearly talent show, Orrick Idol, and a dinner theater performance near end of the year. Whenever possible we make an effort to take advantage of the wide variety of theatrical performances in the Kansas City area. Drama Club is open to any interested students who are willing to devote many hours of their free time to help make our productions the best they can be.
