O'Rourke Rave Board
There are hundreds of acts of kindness and thoughtfulness that happen every day at O'Rourke and although we don't know about them all, we like to recognize our students who get "caught" in the act of helping out, expressing support, being a good sport, sharing and countless other demonstrations of good character.

   Congratulations to these wonderful students who got "caught" in the act!!!
