Journey for Success: High School and Beyond
Video VI is now available. The video was produced by students for a contest sponsored by President Obama. The Commencement Challenge invited public high schools across the country to demonstrate how their school best prepares them for college and a career.
We have chosen Journey for Success: High School and Beyond as the theme of our 2011-2012 community engagement series. Over the next ten weeks we will be providing background information about the planning that went into the current programs and opportunities available at GlenOak High School. We will also look at job trends and how a high school education may look differently in the future. The link to the entire series is located on the left side of the District home page.

GlenOak HS • February 24, 25 & 26
GlenOak High School Musical Theater Productions presents the ever-popular broadway sensation, "ANYTHING GOES" on the Abbey Foltz Stage at GlenOak High School on Friday and Saturday, February 24th and 25th at 7:00 pm and a special matinee performance on Sunday, February 26th at 2:00 pm.
As the S.S. American heads out to sea, two unlikely pairs set off on the course to true love; proving that sometimes destiny needs a little help from a crew of singing sailors, an exotic disguise and some good old-fashioned blackmail. Peppering this hilariously bumpy ride are some of musical theatre's most memorable standards by Cole Porter, including, "I Get a Kick out of You," "It's De-Lovely," and of course, "Anything Goes."
Reserved seating tickets are only $8.00. Reservations can be made by completing a ticket reservation form (download here).

In cases of inclement weather, Plain Local Schools will be implementing a 2-hour delay schedule, along with our more traditional cancellation procedures.
Our top priority is always the safety of our students. This 2-hour delay enables district personnel to have additional time to assess local weather conditions and allows road crews more time to improve driving conditions.
