Thunder Nation Kicks Off Another Incredible Year!

The 2025–26 school year is officially underway, and all three campuses are alive with excitement as students, families, and educators dive into a new chapter together.

The week began with orientations and conferences, giving students and families valuable time to connect with teachers, explore classrooms, and ease into new routines. These early days offered a chance to build relationships, set goals, and get a glimpse of the engaging learning experiences ahead.

By Thursday, the air was filled with the sound of students bustling through hallways and settling into their learning spaces. Educators, eager to begin, warmly greeted their classes, ready to guide them through another fantastic year at ODA. In every classroom, conversations flowed with stories of summer adventures, new hobbies, and memorable travels. Friends reunited, new connections formed, and the strong sense of belonging that defines ODA was on full display.

The year ahead promises rich traditions, engaging programs, and opportunities for every student to grow, lead, and thrive. From the classroom to the playing field, the stage to the science lab, Thunder Nation is ready for a year of excellence, connection, and joy!
