After a year of many successes and a few disappointments, Olney High School Class of 2026 graduates took part in weeklong traditional events leading up to the graduation on Friday, May 15.
Olney High School competed at the regional UIL meet that was held on Friday, April 24, at Grayson College and won second place overall with 203 points. A total of 23 students competed at regionals, and eight students advanced and will compete at the state competition on May 18-19 at the University of Texas campus in Austin.
As your new graduate prepares to step into the next chapter of life – whether that’s more education or starting a career – one of the best things you can do is help them understand how to use credit cards, debit cards and prepaid cards wisely. They can be powerful financial tools, but without some basic knowledge, they can also lead to trouble.
First Baptist Church of Olney’s associational camp, Camp Chaparral, was among dozens of camps that petitioned state lawmakers to roll back new state safety rules that could financially sink rural camps, such as the popular Iowa Park camp attended each summer by dozens of Olney children.
