Weather Day Make-Up

We know many of you have questions about a make-up plan for the recent snow & ice days. Because O'Hara is under the Archdiocese of Portland, any calendar changes or adjustments are required to be approved by our Superintendent's Office. We are technically only at the beginning of winter, and therefore could very well accumulate additional weather days. For these reasons, O'Hara's make-up plan will likely not be determined, approved and announced until closer to Spring Break. Thank you for your understanding, and please join us in praying for a mild rest of the winter!
