As we look ahead to this year, I am filled with excitement and anticipation for all the great things to come.
The OC Rebels and Lady Rebels have been working tirelessly this summer in preparation for the upcoming seasons. Our athletes, cheerleaders, and band members have shown outstanding commitment and perseverance, embodying the spirit of CO and representing us with pride. Their dedication is a testament to their character and the culture of excellence we strive for.
I am immensely proud of our students and staff and wish everyone a successful, enjoyable, and rewarding season.
To my Rebels and Lady Rebels: thank you for allowing me to be part of your journey. I can't wait ot cheer you on from the sidelines on the fields, courses, and courts. I'm incredibly proud of each and every one of you!
A heartfelt thank-you as well to our dedicated staff, supportive parents, and the entire OC community. Your encouragement and involvement mean the world.
My name is Justin Arnold and I am the Athletic Director/Head Football Coach. I want to thank our school board for allowing me the opportunity to lead this program. My mission is to guide our athletes to reach their potential as teammates, competitors, and athletes of character. I am excited to continue to build onto a program that our athletes will be proud of in the years to come. My expectation is for students to strive and perform to the best of their abilities on and off the field. With sixteen years of coaching experience, I am dedicated to our athletes and look forward to fostering a culture of hard work and high expectations.
I have been married to my wife, Lorin for 9 years and we have 2 daughters, Charleigh and Maryn. We look forward to meeting and building relationships within the community.
Go Rebels!

Brooke,
Watching you grow into the smart, strong and compassionate young woman that you are today has been one ofour greatest joys. Your kindness, determination, and sense of humor light up every room you’re in. You were born to be a leader, and it’s been amazing to see that natural strength shine through.
Senior year marks the end of one chapter and the exciting beginning of another – one filled with new adventures, challenges, and dreams waiting to be chased. Wherever life takes you, stay true to yourself, follow your heart, and never forget how much we believe in you. We are so proud of you and love you more than words can say.
Love always, Mom, Dad & Brett

From a baby who we all thought so beautiful, to a child who thought she was all that, now a senior with great ambitions. Though small, sometimes BIG things come in small packages. Life is not always roses, there will be trials throughout life, heartaches will come.
Remember God’s word, “You are an overcomer”. Carry this verse with you throughout life.
Hebrews 13:5
“Let your conversation be with out covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for He hath said, “I will never leavethee, nor forsake thee.”
