OCPA is excited to provide spirit shirts to our K-5 students again this year. It is a special tradition that OCPA purchases and provides these to the students for them to wear on Fridays to school, and we are honored to be able to do this for our students year after year. Be on the lookout for these in the coming weeks.

Preschool News & Updates
The preschool has been full of all the sounds this week. Sounds of crying as little ones begin their first school experience, sounds of laughter as they play on the playground, and sounds of singing that I can hear through the walls as these little voices are already praising Jesus. What a fun week we have had and we look forward to this year watching our students grow. Praying for all the families as they get used to new schedules and new teachers. Please pray for our teachers as they help these students throughout the year.
