Shout out to Mrs. Jami, one of our amazing ESE paraprofessionals! 🌱 She volunteered her time last week to work with our aftercare students to plant seeds in our Garden Tower, giving them a hands-on opportunity to learn how food grows. The students absolutely loved getting their hands dirty and being part of the process!
A big thank you and shout out to Mrs. J as well for her help and support throughout the planting process. We can’t wait to see the success our students have as they grow their own vegetables and watch their hard work come to life! 💚

📣 Looking Ahead to the 2026–2027 School Year
Okeechobee County Schools is announcing a series of campus transitions that will take effect beginning in the 2026–2027 school year. These changes are designed to better serve students at every grade level, align programs with the right facilities, and maximize the benefits of recent and upcoming capital investments across the district.
With the completion of the new Okeechobee High School campus, the school will expand to serve students in grades 9–12 full-time. Ninth-grade students will attend school at the new high school campus. This transition provides students with a more cohesive high school experience and expanded access to programs and opportunities.
As part of these changes, secondary students currently enrolled at Okeechobee Achievement Academy will relocate to the former Freshman Campus building. Elementary students participating in the IBP program will transition to Seminole Elementary School. These moves allow academic programs to be better aligned with facilities designed to support student needs and focused services.
In addition, the district will open a new Early Learning Center dedicated exclusively to VPK students. Having VPK as the only students on this campus allows for a safe, welcoming, and age-appropriate environment focused on early childhood development, early literacy, and kindergarten readiness.
To support these transitions, capital improvement projects will take place at the newly configured Okeechobee Achievement Academy and the future Early Learning Center. These improvements will focus on refreshing facilities, enhancing learning spaces, and ensuring students and families are welcomed into modern, engaging environments. The district will also work closely with families to support student transportation needs wherever possible.
These campus transitions reflect a thoughtful, long-term approach to serving students at every stage of their educational journey. Additional details, timelines, and family communications will be shared as planning continues.
💜Thank you for your continued partnership as we work together to support student success across Okeechobee County Schools.

⏳✨ Stepping back in time with Mrs. Hubbard’s 5th grade class in Williamsburg, VA! ✨⏳
Students experienced life in the 13 Colonies by exploring the political, economic, and social aspects of daily colonial life. They learned what school was like using quill feathers and ink, practiced sewing and shoemaking skills, and even took part in making governing decisions.
An excellent example of Visible Learning—bringing history to life through hands-on, engaging experiences!
