Postseason volleyball has arrived for the Buffaloes as the team heads off to Wakefield today for the sub-state tournament. Onaga enters as the #6 seed in the 7-team field and will take on #3-seeded Solomon in the opening round. Games get underway at 1:00pm this afternoon and the girls will play the third match of the opening round. The entire tournament will be played today, with one team punching their ticket to the state tournament. For a complete look at the sub-state bracket, follow the link below to the team's page on the district website.
The cross country team is also competing in postseason today as they head to Sabetha for the regional meet beginning at 10:00am. Sabetha is actually hosting 3A and 1A regionals today, with 3A girls starting things off. 1A girls will follow around 10:35am, 3A boys are scheduled to start at 11:10am, and the 1A boys will cap the day off at 11:45am. The Onaga boys don't have enough runners to qualify for state as a team, meaning they will need a top 5 finish among runners not on a state-qualifying team to punch their ticket to the state meet.
Good luck today to all of our student-athletes! GO BUFFALOES!!!

On Wednesday night the KAYs organization did their annual fundraiser to raise money for world hunger. Every year the group does a "Trick or Treat" around town to collect spare change and any other donations people want to contribute to the cause. They then head back to the school to enjoy some pizza and count their donations, all of which is then sent to Heifer International to help with world hunger. Though a total wasn't available immediately following the event, several students said they collected "A LOT!"
Nice job KAYs!!!
We had a few crossed wires in the transition of photos from one entity to another, and as a result were unable to locate the cross country senior night pictures from earlier this month. We have finally uncrossed our wires and have them, and we wanted to give a shoutout to Gavin Goodrum and Tristin Frye, and their parents, for their years of dedication to Onaga cross country! Thank you for you commitment and many sacrifices for the betterment of Buffalo athletics!!!

Ms. Klahr's kindergarten class had several things going on this week. In the first photo you'll see Brooke and Adelynn. Ms. Klahr has a reward system in her class where the students get tickets for being kind to friends, following directions, and doing positive actions towards themselves and others. Brooke and Adelynn had saved up their earnings and used their 30 tickets to pick out a surprise!
With Halloween around the corner, Ms. Klahr's class also learned the life cycle of a pumpkin. Now they are going to do their own experiment to see it in real life! They carved their own classroom pumpkin, “Pumpkin Jack.” Throughout the year they will see each stage of the life cycle using some of their five senses!

Mrs. Labbe's Food Science class is always a fun one, not only for the kids but also for the staff who get to "taste test" the results of their work. Recently the class made pepper jack-o'-lanterns, like the ones here made be seniors Rylie Honas and Konnor Nider. They then filled the peppers with italian sausage and other ingredients to create stuffed pepper, Halloween style!
