Hey Orange Schools Parents!
How Is School Going So Far?
Dear Parents and Caregivers,

Orange Village Residents:
Join Us On October 20th

Orange Schools will host a Community Chat for Orange Village residents at the Village Hall on Thursday, October 20, 2016 from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Two school board members will be on hand to discuss topics that interest Orange Village residents about the School District.

As part of the Orange Schools Board of Education community outreach effort, we will be holding these meetings in each of our five main communities throughout the school year. The next scheduled event will be on November 17, 2016 for Pepper Pike residents at the City Hall. We will be scheduling meetings in Moreland Hills, Woodmere and Hunting Valley in the near future as well.
