Welcome back for 2nd Semester

Dear Oak Park High School Community,

We are thrilled to welcome students and families back for the second semester! As we move into the second half of the school year, we remain committed to providing rigorous and engaging learning experiences in our classrooms. Ensuring the safety and well-being of our students continues to be our top priority, and we have implemented measures to maintain a healthy environment. Thank you for your ongoing support, we look forward to a great semester ahead!

Drop Off / Pick Up

All students will be dropped off in the student-visitor parking lot. Drivers will enter through gate 1 and follow the traffic cones to the student drop-off lane, once the student is dropped off the driver will exit gate 2.

Parents and family members picking up students, please be advised that there is no parking on Oak Park Blvd from the student parking lot driveway up to the exit of the circular drive. The circular drive is for emergency vehicles only.

Entering the Building

All students and visitors will enter the building through the student entrance, DOOR 28. Students must have a school-issued photo ID to enter the building. Once the student shows ID they will move to the next door where they will pass through metal detectors and have their bag checked. Next, the student will go into the cafeteria for breakfast and be released from the cafeteria at 7:55 a.m.

Dress Code Updates

Students may not wear the following: 

  • Hats 
  • Full face masks (including gaiter masks) 
  • Sunglasses 
  • Hoodies on their heads 
  • Any top that shows a bare midriff (e.g., no crop tops, bralettes or sheer/lace tops) 
  • Excessively ripped or torn clothing.  No cut-off shorts.  No holes above the mid-thigh area. 
  • Clothing with obscene language, sexual innuendo, or references to drugs or alcohol.  Clothing that harasses or defames individuals or groups of people. 

The wonderful OPHS staff and I feel privileged to be a part of this school family. We thank you for your support and look forward to an excellent school year!

Growth Mindset

Our collective behaviors articulate the belief that all of our students can learn at high levels with the appropriate supports and resources in a collaborative, caring, healthy, positive, and safe environment that focuses on results. All of our students will learn because of what we do. By operating with a growth mindset we will create a healthy environment for students to experience the joys of learning. Putting forth intentional efforts to use data to inform our decision-making, employ best practices, and continuously making improvements we will fully support our learning community. By appropriately interacting, communicating, discovering, and respecting who our students are, Oak Park High School will be a fundamental factor that makes a powerful impact in our students’ lives and their academic achievement.

Quality, Professional Educators

As a team of professionals, we will intentionally use strategies to approach student behaviors through the teaching and modeling of prosocial behaviors, positive interventions, and the use of specific restorative practices that increase student self-efficacy, improve student-teacher relationships, and promote dignity and respect for self and others. Our collective efforts will help students become college and career ready as well as becoming better at who they already are.
