LOVE IS IN THE AIR! Unfortunately, no outside food, drinks, or latex can be delivered to OHS.  If you or your student would like to surprise someone special on Valentine's Day, they can do so by purchasing candy grams and announcements from the cheerleaders. All gifts will be delivered to the student on Valentine's Day. 

In an effort to keep our students safe, we have tightened up on enforcing the SLPSB policy. Cell phones and backpacks need to be placed in lockers. Students should be in uniform. Slippers, crocs, slides, or any soft-sole shoes are prohibited. Tardies and skipping will not be tolerated.

Today at approximately 11:50 am we received a call from someone threatening harm to students. We evacuated both buildings and contacted local law enforcement. OPD and the fire department were on campus within minutes (checking the building and investigating the threat).  Students are safely back in class. Thank you Opelousas Fire and police for all of your help!
