Over 20 clubs and organizations offer students a wide variety of opportunities to expand their talents and skills outside of the classroom. Whether it is judging livestock, competing in "Techies Day," producing our annual, The Kernel, or performing in one of our many musical performances, our students are never left wondering what to do with their time. We actively encourage our students to form new organizations to support their interests. We are especially proud of our visual and performing arts activities, where thousands of community members are treated to shows each year.

Student athletes have full three-season interscholastic sports schedules on our 17 varsity and junior varsity teams.

Our teams are supported by active boosters organizations and benefit from a community committed to Hornet athletics

We offer a wide variety of required and elective courses ranging from introductory world languages (French, Spanish and Latin) to Advanced Placement courses (US History, Calculus, English and Biology). We are currently expanding our Advanced Placement program, adding a new course each year. Students with special needs receive either individual placement instruction or, in the case of most of our students, instruction in the regular classroom. In some of our core classrooms, we have scheduled both a regular educator and a learning support teacher to provide diverse instruction to meet our students' needs. As we prepare to move to our new. Our new buliding affords us greater opportunity to expand upon "Career Pathways," our schoolwide career education program.

The Oxford Area High School community is proud of its accomplishments in academics, athletics, and extra-curricular activities. We are eager to build on these accomplishments as we move further into the twenty-first century.
