School Supply Update
Parents of OCCS Students, 
Whether you are new to OCCS or a returning family, we welcome you to the start of emails preparing you for the 2022-2023 school year! There are many more weeks of summer to enjoy as a family but if you are seeing school supplies out in the stores while you are shopping, and you are one that likes to get a jump on things, we would like to ask you to pause on purchasing school supplies. We are still working through details and will share the news with you just as soon as we have the details worked out. For now, sit back and enjoy summer, we will get you school supply details just as soon as possible!

Thank you!

Society Meeting Results
Last week the board presented the plans for the building addition to the society and many great questions were asked and answered. We asked those present if they approved of this plan to expand our facilities in order to develop our youth for service in Christ's kingdom for generations to come. Our society responded in a big way by passing the proposal with an 84% majority vote!

Over the next few weeks, we will be putting together more details on the fundraising part of this plan, so stay tuned to see how you can be an active part of continuing the mission of OCCS through this building expansion!
