Super exciting news! Your library now has two black and white printers and two color printers. Two important things to remember: to print in color, you MUST choose SECURE_PRINT_COLOR. Also, once you scan your badge at a reader, the print job is gone, even if it doesn’t print. So if you scan your badge at a printer that isn’t printing for some reason, like if it is out of paper, you’ll need to print it again before scanning your badge at a printer that is working. (8/20, 8/22, 8/24) – C. Milloway

Seniors: Ever wondered what you’d do if you had a flat and were stuck on the side of the road, out of cell service? Ever considered checking the oil and tire pressure but weren’t sure how?

Come to the Auto Tech room in G-Building on Thursday, August 30, from 3:30-5:00, and learn all this and more from ORHS’s Mr. Ladue. All ORHS seniors are welcome.
