At Oregon City School District (OCSD), we believe in fostering a respectful, inclusive, and engaging online community that reflects our commitment to learning, collaboration, and belonging. To maintain a safe and positive environment for all users, we ask that you follow these engagement guidelines when interacting with our social media pages:

Respectful Communication
We encourage thoughtful discussion and the sharing of ideas. However, posts or comments containing the following will be removed:
Language or content that is abusive, obscene, or inappropriate, including profanity, hate speech, or sexually explicit material. Discriminatory remarks based on race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, or any other protected status. Personal attacks or derogatory comments about students, staff, or community members. Content that violates the privacy of individuals, including personal or confidential information. Constructive Participation
Stay on topic. Comments should relate to the original post to foster meaningful discussion. Avoid repetitive comments. Posting the same message multiple times disrupts engagement and will be removed. Cite sources when sharing information. Misinformation or unverified claims may be removed to maintain accuracy. Monitoring & Response
Our page administrators regularly review comments and messages and will do their best to respond promptly or direct inquiries to the appropriate district leader(s). Messages are checked during normal OCSD operating hours. Responses may be delayed on weekends, holidays, and school breaks. Enforcement & Accountability

On Tuesday, September 15th, Mrs. Shortt’s 5th grade class celebrated National Dot Day! As a class, they read the book The Dot by Peter H. Reynolds and they discussed how everyone can make a mark on the world and how everyone’s mark is unique in its own way. The class then followed it up with their own “dot” art and noticed that, even using similar colors, EVERYONE’s dot was different, special, and unique! Each student made their mark by signing their dot and knowing that they will be leaving their mark this year in a positive way at JME!

🚧 Shovels in the ground at John McLoughlin Elementary!

This morning, we broke ground on the renovation work made possible by our 2025 bond. From better acoustics to improved cafeteria space, these upgrades will make a real difference for JME students and staff for many years ahead. Thank you to our community for making this possible. The best is yet to come! 🏫✨
