🔬🧪 SCIENCE IN ACTION at OGMS! 🧪🔬
Mrs. Pate’s 6th grade scientists took their learning to the SCIENCE LAB for some hands-on investigating! 🥼🔎
Students used microscopes to examine different samples up close and determine whether they were living or nonliving. 🦠🌱👀 Nothing beats getting to see science come to life right in front of you!
Hands-on learning + curious minds = a great day at OGMS! 🧠✨

5th grade students have been on a ROLL this week in their classes! They've visited the library, worked with synonyms, and learned to use a compass.
We love watching our students grow in knowledge and experience.

Mrs. Hill’s class put their multiplication skills to work with a fun, hands-on activity reviewing multiplication facts! Students were learning, moving, thinking, and sharpening those math skills along the way. 🧠💪
Who says multiplication has to be boring?! At OGMS, Math can be FUN! 🎉📚

Mrs. Davenport and Mrs. Miller’s 5th grade Social Studies classes kicked off the year by learning about respect, responsibility, and proper flag etiquette.
After learning the dos and don’ts of caring for our nation’s flag, students put their knowledge—and their ability to follow directions—to the test by learning how to properly fold the American flag. 🇺🇸
A great hands-on lesson in patriotism, teamwork, and respect for one of our nation’s most recognizable symbols!

The time has arrived! The first day of school is coming fast and the Oak Grove Middle School staff is beyond excited to start another amazing school year!!!
We are so excited to see everyone TOMORROW!!! Please be aware of our Drop-Off and Pick-Up Procedures for car riders.
Our drop off in the morning begins at 7:15 am. Our pick up in the afternoon begins at 3:15 pm. Please pay attention to the maps attached to see which lanes are drop off and pick up. For our safety and our students' safety, please pay attention and listen to the staff members who are directing traffic during drop off and pick ups. They are working to ensure that your child enters and leaves school safely.
Tomorrow morning, the sun will rise over every Paragould school, and with it comes the beginning of a brand new year full of possibility.
Buses will be rolling through neighborhoods, cafeteria teams will be preparing meals, teachers will be standing at their doors, and classrooms will be ready to welcome students back home.
Tomorrow isn’t just the first day of school, it’s the first page of a new chapter.
It’s a chance to make a new friend, encourage someone who needs it, ask great questions, work hard, show kindness, and grow a little more than you did yesterday.
To our students: We can’t wait to see your smiles.
To our families: Thank you for trusting us with your greatest treasures.
To our teachers and staff: Thank you for the countless hours you’ve poured into preparing for this moment. Your impact reaches far beyond the classroom.
This year, our theme is Leave a Legacy. Legacy isn’t built in a single moment, it’s created day by day through the choices we make, the kindness we show, the effort we give, and the lives we touch.
Here’s to new beginnings, new memories, and a year that leaves a lasting impact.
Let's do this, Rams. ❤️💙

The Paragould School District has been made aware of a security issue on the high school construction site. While the situation appears to be isolated in nature and was not specifically directed toward the Paragould School District, local authorities were immediately notified and are investigating the matter. Out of an abundance of caution, Ram Run activities for students in grades 4–6 will be postponed. We appreciate your understanding as we continue to prioritize the safety and well-being of our students, staff, and community.
