On Saturday, October 15, 2022 our homecoming dance “Under the Spotlight”, had 400+ attendees that danced the night away. The luxurious themed dance was opened to not only the Midtown area, but also half of the large gym for the first time since before the COVID-19 pandemic. Attendees were able to enjoy different club vendors, such as Polynesian club with spam musubis, ARK with their classic cream puffs, EAC with silky boba drinks, and more. We also had Martha’s Catering and Luv’s Brownies serving their fresh cuisine and dessert. All clubs were able to sell out and our vendors had a successful night too. Although the homecoming dance was more traditional, without any performances, the crowd enjoyed the music and entertainment from our Balloon Lady and Caricatures. We would also like to congratulate our

Homecoming King and Queen, Edgar Gutierrez and Daniela Zavala! One of the most successful additions during homecoming was our beautiful photo opportunity. Throughout the night, lines to take pictures were constant. We had our balloon arch, twinkling lights, and royal backdrops. Homecoming is always one of the biggest events of the year, and we are so glad to be able to host one that so many people enjoyed!

Oak Grove High School's annual Halloween Fest made its 2nd return since the pandemic on Monday, October 31st, 2022 from 3:30-5:30PM! This community event provided the young children and their families with the opportunity to safely celebrate Halloween with fun game booths and sweet treats! Each campus club ran a game booth such as BSU's mini golf, MMS's stop the spinning light, Unicef's cauldron toss and more! By simply participating in the games, the participants earn pieces of candy to mimic trick or treating! The auxiliary parking lot was filled with festive energy from the cheerful youth in their creative costumes. Halloween 2022 was definitely a success!

Benjamin Franklin once said that “nothing is certain except death and taxes”. This would be a good quote, if it was actually true. But as all high school students know, there are three things that are certain in life. Death, taxes, and college application season. But thankfully for students, OG is here to take some of that college stress off of student’s shoulders with College and Career Week! This was a week-long event (as the name implies) that took place at the Hill during lunch from 10/24 to 10/28. Throughout the week, students had the chance to rack up tickets either through answering daily trivia or participating in several minute-to-win- it games for a chance to win an iPad in a raffle. But aside from that, there were also several colleges and institutions present at several tables located all throughout the Hill. Students flocked to these tables in order to learn more about these colleges/institutions, either through asking questions or receiving pamphlets. There were also several after school activities that took place that either took place on Zoom or throughout campus that provided students with even more information on how to apply for financial aid and much more. College and Career Week came to a close with better informed students and a brand new iPad owner, Vivian Pham!

Where do pickles go to buy a car? The dillership! On November 14 at lunch, we had our very first DILL ON THE HILL. This exceptional lunch event attracted hundreds of students leading down to 4 contestants and 4, 1 gallon jars of pickles. 5 minutes. 30 pickles. 1 stomach. The seniors were represented by Nova, juniors with Elvis, sophomores with Derrick, and freshmen with Antoine. The juniors and sophomores could not stand a chance, with the seniors and freshman advancing to the next round after a tie of 4 pickles. In the final round, Nova barely beat Antonie, but remained victorious. Puddles of pickle juice and the pungent scent lingered all over the hill. Not only is Nova the first ever Dill on the Hill pickle champion, but also the first owner of the legendary Dill on the Hill shirt. After our contest, we had huge jars of pickles leftover, which was enjoyed by the student body!
