🎙️ Welcome to Keeping Up With the Raccoons—the official podcast of Oconomowoc High School! I’m your host, Principal Jason Curtis (aka the one Raccoon you can’t catch up with).

In this episode, I sit down with three members of our OHS wrestling program to talk about what it truly means to commit to being student-athletes, to their passion for wrestling, and to their academic and career journeys.

Together, we focus on one of our core values: being focused on our goals. As Raccoons, each of us has individual goals during our four-year journey at OHS. Those goals can evolve, grow more complex, or even completely change. But the discipline, resilience, and mindset it takes to pursue them remains constant.

From balancing practices and schoolwork to setting long-term aspirations beyond the mat, these wrestlers share how they’ve learned to embrace the daily work and fall in love with the process.

Whether you’re chasing a championship, a career dream, or personal growth, this episode is a reminder that success isn’t just about the outcome, it’s built in the commitment you make every single day. 🦝🤼‍♂️

🎙️Welcome to Keeping Up With the Raccoons—the official podcast of Oconomowoc High School! I’m your host, Principal Jason Curtis (aka the one Raccoon you can’t catch up with).

In this episode, I sit down with four of our current freshmen to talk about what it’s really like to take that first step into the Raccoon Experience. From navigating the transition to high school to exploring academic interests and early career ideas, they share honest reflections on their first year at OHS.

Their stories offer valuable insight for our incoming freshmen—proof that your high school journey isn’t about having everything figured out on day one. It’s about discovering who you are, trying new things, and making choices that help shape who you’re becoming.

Whether you’re preparing to start high school or supporting someone who is, this episode is a great reminder that every Raccoon’s journey begins with one step—and it’s okay to grow as you go. 🦝🎓
