💀✨ In Mythology class, students have been exploring Aztec mythology and the origins of Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) — a tradition that began with the Aztecs to honor those who had passed on.
Today, students created their own papel picado — colorful paper designs that celebrate life and remembrance — and combined them into a beautiful class banner! 🎨🕯️

We are in the final week and a half of the 2025 Osseo-Fairchild 10,000 Shot Club! It’s been awesome to see so many players putting in the work all summer and fall to sharpen their skills and grow their confidence on the court.
If your child has completed the challenge, please email jzawacki@ofsd.k12.wi.us to confirm their 10,000 shots . Players who finish will earn a free T-shirt and be recognized at a varsity basketball game in December!
Let’s finish strong, Thunder! Every shot counts. Keep working hard and wrapping up those final reps before the November 9 deadline.
