The Oldham County Schools Assistant Superintendent Search Committee has unanimously chosen Dr. Dylan Smith to serve as the next Assistant Superintendent for Student Learning. Dr. Smith joined the district as the principal of North Oldham Middle School in 2018. Bringing with him a wealth of experience from his years as an educator and administrator in several states, he helped North Oldham Middle School redefine their culture and strengthen their community. Highlights of his time at North Oldham Middle include establishing a house system and student government, as well as introducing the Confucius Classroom and Fab Lab to the school.

Online registration for returning OCS families is now open.  Please login to your Infinite Campus Parent Portal to register your child or children. If you already have children in OCS and have an incoming kindergartener for the 2020/2021 school year, you may register them at this time (click *Add New Student*).

If you are new to the district and have an incoming kindergartener, or are moving into the district, you will need to call the school you are assigned to and leave a message with your name and phone number. Someone will call you back with information on how to complete registration. Please be patient, as it may take several days for someone to return your call. You may also email the principal of the school to inquire about registering a kindergartener or new student.

The OCBE has approved the calendar for the 2020/2021 school year.
