Our students and staff have been busy first semester. We are looking forward to a great rest of the year. Last day of school is May 24.
Grand Opening
We were excited to open the Fort Osage High School Fieldhouse in January 2024. This was the last of the projects to be completed thanks to voter approval in 2021. For more details visit https://www.fortosage.net/our-district/2021-bond-and-levy-transfer
