We believe every student deserves opportunities that prepare them for success beyond graduation.
This is what investing in student success looks like.
Building Trades
The expanded workspace is giving students more room to think bigger. This spring, Ogemaw Heights proudly hosted the Michigan Construction Teachers Association Competition for the very first time. The additional workspace allows students to complete larger projects, including deer blinds and other full-scale construction builds.
Looking ahead, we're excited to welcome even more schools back for the competition during the 2026-2027 school year.
Machine Shop
The new Machine Tool lab has created opportunities that simply weren't possible before.
With additional equipment and expanded workspace, students are gaining valuable hands-on experience using industry-standard technology while developing skills that prepare them for careers in advanced manufacturing and skilled trades.
Agricultural Science
Learning comes to life in our new AgriScience facilities. The greenhouse supports exciting student projects. Students have grown microgreens—including salad mix, peas, radishes, broccoli, and sunflower shoots—that are shared with our school kitchen. FFA is planning a student-led Mother's Day hanging basket sale that combines entrepreneurship with agricultural education.
In the Livestock Lab, students have already raised chickens and ducks for egg production, and plans are underway to expand learning opportunities with bottle-fed lambs beginning in the spring of 2027.
These authentic experiences help students build confidence while connecting classroom learning to real agricultural careers.
Health Science
Future healthcare professionals are learning in a space built specifically for them.
The dedicated Health Science lab allows students to move seamlessly between classroom instruction and hands-on practice. With eight hospital beds and eight medical mannequins, students have the space to work independently, collaborate in small groups, and practice the essential skills they'll use in future healthcare careers.
It's real-world learning that prepares students for real-world success.
Ogemaw Heights Cafeteria
The cafeteria is more than just a place to eat—it’s where our school community comes together. It’s a space for students to relax, catch up with friends, and fuel their day with fresh, healthy meals. From handmade pizzas and specialty burgers to our custom sandwich line and crisp salads, our new kitchen is serving up fresh favorites daily!
