Congratulations to the OCHS Student Council for earning the National Gold Council Award of Excellence for 9 years in a row!
For its exemplary record of leadership, service, and activities that improve the school and community, the Oregon City High School student council has been recognized as a 2025 National Gold Council of Excellence by the National Association of Student Councils (NASC). The NASC program is supported by its parent organization, the National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP).
Leadership in Action
Principal Timmons praised the group’s commitment to building a cohesive school culture.
“The OCHS Student Council has done an exceptional job of growing student involvement throughout schoolwide events. I am especially proud of the work they have done in building a more inclusive environment with active participation and membership in the Student Council with students receiving support services.”
Student Council Advisor Tiffani Travers also highlighted the resilience of this year's student leaders. "When faced with some difficult changes, they chose to step up rather than give up," Travers noted. "They didn't let limited class time slow them down; instead, they stayed focused and made every minute count."
This national recognition reflects the strong leadership within OCHS and the dedication of students to making a tangible difference in their community.

Did you know? Every OCSD student a library that goes wherever they go?
Oregon City School District provides every student free access to Sora, a digital library app designed specifically for K–12 learners. Whether your student is a confident reader, still building their skills, or somewhere in between, Sora has something for them — and the tools to help them grow.
Here's what's waiting for your family
📚 A library built for them: Ebooks, audiobooks, picture books, read-alongs, and graphic novels — all hand-selected and age-appropriate for all our readers.
🏠 Access anywhere, anytime: Sora works on phones, tablets, and computers. Books are available 24/7 — no library hours, no late fees, no lost books.
🌎 Books in their language: The app is available in 13 languages and includes bilingual titles and world language books, so every family can engage with reading in the language that works best for them.
👁️ Built for every kind of reader: Adjustable text size, dyslexic-friendly fonts, high contrast display, and a read-aloud feature that highlights words as they're spoken — Sora meets your student where they are.
🏅 Motivation built in: Daily reading goals, progress tracking, and achievement badges make reading fun and engaging!
🏙️ Two libraries in one: Through our partnership with Oregon City Public Library, your student's student library card also unlocks OCPL's digital collection inside Sora — even more books, same app, no extra steps.
Select the Oregon City School District, log in with your student's Classlink, and start exploring today.
📚 Download Sora for free wherever you get your apps.

Let's talk about what "being here" does for our students. 📈
Students who attend school each day:
Earn higher grades and test scores - these look great on job applications, apprenticeship applications, college applications, etc.
Build stronger friendships and social connections - a strong support system helps students thrive
Feel more confident and engaged in learning - making learning connections stronger
Have better career and college opportunities - see the first three points!
We're here to support students. If you or your student needs support in attendance (or otherwise), OCSD offers counseling services for students, family resource supports, and staff who care. Please reach out to your school for more information on accessing these supports.
Show up. Level up. We're cheering for you every single day.
We are also doing a 50/50 raffle drawing that night! And raffling Air show tickets. Still time to get your raffle tickets.
