Most schools have a grad night for their seniors.
But at OVS, we go a little bigger: We have a grad WEEK.

Each year before graduation, Outdoor Education Coordinator Zach Byars takes our seniors to the Rogue River in Oregon for a week of exploring, paddling, camping and bonding.
“The Rogue River is a treasure of the Earth,” said trip leader and English teacher, Brad Weidlich. “We came together as a team, lived out our dreams, shared personal reflections, played in the water, navigated powerful rapids, danced, sang, jumped off rocks, ate Mexican and Japanese food, learned how to read water and wind.”
In true OVS style, there were big moments, belly laughs, campfires, and of course, really good food (Philly cheesesteak sandwiches for the win!).

Before the graduation festivities yesterday, our senior class met to watch the sunrise together at Solimar Beach in Ventura.
The senior sunrise surf trip is a tradition for the high schoolers on the dawn of their graduation day. Some surfed, some swam, several went for a walk, but community was the focus, with time set aside to soak up some fresh air on the brink of their next chapters.
Conditions were as good as they get — with dolphins, glassy waves, and a spectacular light show, it was an idyllic sendoff.

This morning, our 24 seniors crossed the stage to accept their high school diplomas at the 62nd Commencement Ceremony.
We are so proud of these freshly-minted alumni! They are campus and community leaders, AP scholars, outdoor enthusiasts, sports champions, and most importantly, genuinely kind humans.
They now move on to colleges like UC Santa Barbara, UC Berkeley, NYU, UCLA, Pomona College, and the Savannah College of Art and Design. We can’t wait to see what you do next!
Congratulations, Class of 2026!

It’s graduation and promotion season at OVS!
Over the last two days, we’ve celebrated our Lower Campus students in four ceremonies, as they’ve moved up grades and divisions.
Tomorrow’s the big show, with the Class of 2026 graduating from the Upper Campus in the Carl S. Cooper Amphitheater.
Congratulations to each and every one of you, Spuds!
