Mrs. Lora Thurston, Principal
Welcome to the 2009-2010 school year here at Ousley Jr. High. Excellence is a daily habit which we know all our students will develop during their time here. Our faculty cares deeply for your child's success and will work with you as your partners in educating your child.
One of the many things our faculty will invest in this year is our study of Ruby Payne's book Framework for Understanding Poverty. This book has much to offer all of our families, as it deals with the needs of all children, not just those in financial hardship.
"Your present circumstances don't determine where you can go; they merely determine where you start." --Nido Qubein
Let's start today to make this the best school year ever!
