We had the sweetest surprise visitor at preschool today! 🐷💗

Our amazing School Resource Officer, Officer Nikki, brought her mini pig, named Sherman, to visit ORSP and it absolutely made everyone’s day! From giggles and wide eyes to curious questions, this special visit was such a fun learning experience for our preschoolers. (And honestly…the teachers were just as excited! 😂)

Did you know mini pigs are highly intelligent animals? They can learn routines, recognize people, and even be trained to do tricks! They’re also very social and love interaction, making them a wonderful way for children to learn about kindness, gentle touches, and caring for animals.

Thank you, Officer Nikki, for bringing a little extra joy, wonder, and oinks to our day! 🐽✨

All schools and district offices will be closed Monday, May 25, in observance of the Memorial Day holiday.

We hope everyone has a safe, fun, and relaxing weekend, and we look forward to welcoming staff and students back on Tuesday, May 26.
