The Kearney Health Opportunities Program (KHOP) is a medical scholarship between UNK and UNMC covering many specialties. This program takes kids from rural Nebraska and puts them through undergrad, saving them an automatic spot into Medical School at UNMC. After Med-School for their specialties, these students return to practice in rural Nebraska. KHOP comes with a learning community, trips to UNMC, and other opportunities not available to a normal pre-med student.
Erica Hesser, an OHS Senior, applied for the medicine division of KHOP, one of the most competitive spots. As a Pre-Medicine Student, she hopes to one day become a family physician. We are so excited to see where the future takes her!

Mrs. Fehr's kindergarten students learned that ‘in the olden days,’ people tried to use bread as erasers! The class gave it their best effort but realized it was better to eat than to use it as an eraser! We love that our creative thinkers tested this theory!

At the January OPSD School Board meeting, the board honored 3 model students and one dedicated educator! These students & staff have shown what it means to do things “The OG Way.” They are risk-takers in and out of the classroom, show grit in all they do, and take ownership of their learning. We are so proud of our September students of the month, Allie Russel (elementary), Tinley Flansburg (middle grades), Hailey Webber (high school), and teacher of the month, Cheri Maupin! Keep up the great work! We greatly appreciate our community sponsors for donating prizes for these individuals to honor their accomplishments!
