We are thrilled to share that our very own Coach, Brittney Stevens, has been awarded a $3,985.44 STEAM grant from Indorama Ventures and The Beaumont Children's Museum!
Her project, "Step Into STEAM: Promoting Health and Learning Through Pedometers," will bring an exciting, hands-on approach to integrating movement and learning for our students. Thanks to this grant, pedometers and software have been purchased to track students' activity, helping them stay active while engaging with technology and data in meaningful ways.
We are so proud of Coach Stevens for her dedication to enriching student learning experiences and promoting a healthy lifestyle. Thank you for all that you do!

OES third graders celebrated the 101st Day of School, Dalmatian style! Students and teachers alike enjoyed activities and treats throughout the day! It’s always a great day to be a Bobcat!
3rd Grade students have had a blast learning all about the planets within our solar system!
Orangefield Elementary 3rd grade reading students became paleontologists this week as a culminating activity following their reading story, “The Albertosaurus Mystery, Philip Currie’s Hunt in the Badlands.” Using special tools, students enjoyed digging out the chips in chocolate chip cookies without breaking the cookie! Using the Scientific Method, students were able to make predictions and draw conclusions about their experiment. They also enjoyed learning about Otzi, the 5,300 year old mummy found in 1991, who scientists still study today in Bolzano, Italy.
OES Parents- We will be hosting a STAAR Informational Parent Meeting on February 10, 2025 at 5:00 pm in the OES Cafeteria prior to Open House.

On Tuesday, our talented 3rd-grade students took the stage for their incredible program, "Hats!" Through lively songs and creative storytelling, they showcased the many different types of hats, their uses, and the people who wear them. More importantly, they beautifully shared the message that it's not the hat that makes a person special, but what’s underneath!
A huge THANK YOU to everyone who helped bring this production to life! Special appreciation goes to Mrs. Blake, whose dedication and hard work shined through—even with limited practice time due to snow days.
Fantastic job, 3rd grade!
