    OPHS Drama Club Presents Freaky Friday

    The Orchard Park High School Drama Club is proud to present Freaky Friday. When an overworked mother and her teenage daughter magically swap bodies, they have just one day to put things right again. Freaky Friday , a new musical based on the celebrated novel by Mary Rodgers and the hit Disney films, is a heartfelt, comedic and unexpectedly emotional update on an American classic. By spending a day in each other’s shoes, Katherine and Ellie come to appreciate one another’s struggles, learn self-acceptance, and realize the immeasurable love and mutual respect that bond a mother and daughter.

    UPK Registration

    The Orchard Park Central School District (OPCSD) is currently accepting applications for Universal Pre-Kindergarten (UPK) for the 2025-2026 school year. OPCSD is once again able to offer UPK through a grant provided by the New York State Education Department. This grant covers the cost of the program but does not cover transportation. It is the responsibility of each family to transport their child to the UPK site. There are only a designated number of UPK spots available. A “digital lottery” will determine who will qualify to attend. Children are randomly selected for the program and selection is not based on academic or economic need. All registered children are equally eligible for participation. All students with complete registration before the March 19, 2025 deadline will have an equal chance for selection in the lottery.

    Cold Weather Information

    It is a good idea to talk to your child about cold weather safety. It is important to check your child’s (even teenagers') outerwear. Protecting exposed skin during cold weather is extremely important: warm coats, hats, gloves, scarves, and boots will help protect your child during the winter season. When considering the safety of students in cold weather the following information from the National Weather Service is used as a guideline in making a determination to close schools: Cautionary: Wind Chills of -18 to -20 degrees Advisory: Wind Chills of -25 degrees or below Warning: Wind Chills of -35 degrees or below In many areas of the country, schools will not close until the wind chill temperature is at the Warning level of -40 degrees or below. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that no one should be outside with unprotected skin with wind-chill factors in the range of -40 degrees or below. In Orchard Park, if the wind chill temperature reaches above the advisory level, school may be delayed or closed.

    South Davis Elementary Students Enjoy Annual Bike to School Event

    On Wednesday, October 9, South Davis Elementary students took part in the school’s annual Bike to School event, a tradition held each fall and spring to encourage a healthy and active start to the day. With support from the Orchard Park Police Department and the South Davis PTO, students and their families were invited to enjoy a morning bike ride to school. Led by Principal Jeff Dolce, the group rode together on a beautiful fall morning, making the most of the fresh air and exercise before classes began. The event brought students, families, and staff together for a fun, active start to the day, and everyone had a great time.
