OCHS had a great assembly today! Stephanie Gaitley, a nationally recognized college basketball coach, addressed the students about the importance of giving back to their community. Her message emphasized that we are bigger than the individual—that teamwork and outreach can make a lasting impact. We also kicked off OCNJ Pink Hair Movement to honor OC's own Coach H- Mackenzie Helpenstine. Thank you to all who honored her memory in such a special way today.
