Deerwood Elementary School-OCPS

Save the date! Additional details will be shared in July.

Today, we proudly hosted Deerwood’s Senior Walk for the graduating Class of 2026!

We are incredibly proud of each of them for continuing to SOAR, and we wish them nothing but success and happiness in all of their future endeavors - whether those journeys take them near or far.

We especially loved seeing several graduating siblings take over our morning announcements as ENN anchors, bringing excitement, smiles, and a full-circle moment!

Congratulations, Class of 2026 — your Deerwood Eagle family will always be cheering you on!
