Our next Staff Spotlight shines a light on Officer Steve Walrath, OHS School Resource Officer!

Officer Walrath has built strong, positive relationships with students throughout Oneida High School. Whether he’s stocking his office with candy and snacks, greeting students in the hallways, or simply taking the time to listen, he has become someone students know they can turn to.

"Officer Walrath is always present in the hallways, making kids feel safe and giving them another resource for any issues they’re having."

Students often seek out Officer Walrath just to talk—and that connection is a reflection of the trust he has built within our school community. His presence goes far beyond safety; he is a listening ear, a familiar face, and a supportive resource for students when they need one.

OCSD is a better place because Officer Walrath cares deeply about our students and is always there to support them in so many ways.

Thank you, Officer Walrath, for making OHS a safer, more welcoming place for our students!
