There is so much going on here at OHES! Take a glimpse of some wonderful artwork, math stations, and our awesome band students. Things are happening here at Orange Hunt!
OHES Parent Information Meeting (For AAP information)
A parent information meeting will be held virtually on Thursday, September 30th at 9:30AM and again at 6:00PM. Jennifer Weis, our AART will provide information about levels of service and examples at Orange Hunt, explain the screening processes, and answer questions about part-time school-based and full-time Level IV services. A narrated presentation of the AAP Overview is available here. For additional information on the AAP Elementary Continuum of Services, please click here.
We Need Your Consent for Select Digital Resources
At Orange Hunt Elementary School, our teachers will use a variety of digital resources to support student learning and promote communication and collaboration with students and families. Some of the digital resources your child may use this year will require your consent before they can be used. You can find our school’s list of the resources that require parental consent here: https://orangehuntes.fcps.edu/adopteddigitalresources. Additionally, you can find more information about approved digital resources in FCPS here: https://www.fcps.edu/resources/technology/digital-resources.
Included on this page is also a link to a form where the enrolling parent or guardian will need to indicate whether or not their student is allowed to use the list of digital resources this year. This page also provides more information about how FCPS carefully reviews digital resources for approval and why we must request your consent before using certain tools. We encourage you to complete the parental consent for digital resources form as soon as possible, as your child will not be able to use the digital resources until we have received your permission. Please reach out to your child’s teacher if you have questions or concerns about the digital resources we’ve chosen to use this year.
Safety Reminder
Due to the large volume of people at arrival and dismissal, we ask everyone to please wear a mask. We encourage all adults and students to help each other and not remove your mask until you are in your car or away from the crowd. Thank you in advance for your help and support!

Schoology
The School Based Technology Specialists of the West Springfield Pyramid have made this video to help parents with the basics of our new Learning Management System Schoology. Making sure you have an active parent account will help you in supporting your child’s learning as well as get communication from your child’s teacher and the school.

FCPS Cares!
FCPS CARES is an opportunity for staff, parents, students, and community members to recognize FCPS employees for going above and beyond to help others. Every month, a nominated employee from each region and Central Offices will be recognized as an FCPS CARES of the Month recipient. We’ll share their names in Employee News, and they will also have access to a new FCPS CARES banner for their profile photo in Outlook. Watch this video to learn more about FCPS CARES. We also encourage you to acknowledge a staff member who has gone above and beyond! We love our OHES staff members, let's tell them how we feel!
