Here are some important fast-approaching dates shared by OUSD regarding college applications. It is important for people filling out the applications to have their high school transcripts as the applications need information from those.

Workshops will take place over Zoom and students should sign up in advance on the email form sent to them. The Zoom link will be sent to students who sign up.
More events for seniors will be offered throughout November. For questions, email Bronwen Cull-Michels at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

The parking will start at 6:30 p.m. and the movie will start at 7:30 p.m.
Tickets and dinner/snack pre-orders are available for purchase online only — no tickets will be sold at the event.
Thursday, Oct. 29, is the deadline to pre-order tickets, dinner and treats at bit.ly/OUSDNBC. Tickets are $25 per vehicle. There is room for only 125 vehicles, so people who want to attend are advised to buy their tickets online ASAP.
Larger vehicles, such as trucks and van, will be parked in the back of the lot to allow all to see the movie screen.
This coming movie night is organized by Ojai Unified School District’s Family Fund, and a portion of the proceeds will go to support the Nordhoff Dance program ( https://www.nhsdance.com/annual-appeal ).
