Steve Graner, Physics Teacher

“I love working at OC because it gives me the opportunity to share and teach my favorite subject to an amazing student body. I have always said that I will retire and move on from teaching when I stop having fun in the classroom...10 years later, it's still fun!”

Ms. Jane Jeffries, English Teacher
