My 10th grader goes to Skyline and my 8th grader will be coming to Skyline next year. We adore the teachers, principal, and parent community. Everyone is very dedicated to Skyline and the kids' success. I highly suggest coming to Skyline and experiencing our gem of a public school. Go Titans!

As a parent of an exceptional disabled student, I am pleased with this school. What stands out the most is that administrators, teachers and staff bring their own children to Skyline High School. My child has advanced through her college education while still in high school by accumulating almost 30

We have two children at OHDS, and have been there for three years. We could not be happier with our experience so far. It's a very special community where everyone genuinely lifts each other up. The school leadership is compassionate, competent, and responsive. The teachers are invested in the students' success and make classroom life enjoyable. Despite being a small school there is no shortage of resources and differentiation available to ensure each child thrives. The Jewish education is not just enrichment but deeply woven into their daily lives, so that the kids learn a great deal of about what it means to be Jewish, but more importantly live out the best of Jewish values.Obviously a religious Jewish day school is not for everybody, but if that's something even loosely of interest, I strongly recommend considering OHDS. Our kids look forward to school every morning, and we get to see their intellectual and spiritual development every evening.
