Open House
Open House offers a fantastic opportunity for prospective families to discover more about OES, explore our campus, and engage in conversations with OES leadership, teachers, students, and community members. It is also a perfect opportunity for current families to deepen their understanding of the OES community and explore future divisions.
Middle School & Upper School Open House
Sunday, October 19 - 1-4 p.m.
Grades 6-12
Highlights of the afternoon include:
- Begin with a Gathering—a signature OES tradition that reflects how we come together with intention, reflection, and joy.
- Step into mini classes led by inspiring faculty across every subject area.
- Visit arts and athletic spaces and connect with faculty and coaches who guide students in creativity, expression, and teamwork.
- Meet students and teachers to hear firsthand about clubs, leadership, affinity groups, and life beyond the classroom.
- Talk with school leaders about what makes the OES experience unique—academically and socially.
Whether you're exploring Middle or Upper School, this is your chance to discover what makes OES a place where students are known, challenged, and inspired to grow.
