OHCHS is excited to announce a donation from a graduate in the class of 1987. This donation is in memory of James Kothe, a long time Latin teacher at OHCHS. The donation is for the OHCHS Academic Boosters club. Please read the following letter. My name is Rob Campbell and I am a 1987 graduate of OHCHS. I was fortunate enough to be a Latin student of James Kothe for four years. Like many other students, Jim’s teachings and support had a positive and meaningful impact on my life that has lasted long into adulthood and throughout my professional career. He was an incredible role model and father figure to all of his students. I was very fortunate to be one of them. Jim Kothe had an incredible passion and deep knowledge of his subject matter. He encouraged all of his students to reach their full potential. Jim created an atmosphere where students felt valued as learners. He always referred to his students as ‘Latin Scholars’ and encouraged them to keep doing their very best, even after struggling with an assignment or test. He would frequently ask students to “redeem themselves'' if they didn't quite reach his expectations and they were always happy to oblige. Students always wanted to do their best for Jim. He respected his students and they respected him. He will always be remembered for his incredible gift for teaching and inspiring students. In addition to teaching in the classroom, Jim led many student trips outside of the classroom that facilitated additional learning opportunities and experiences for students. In memory of Jim and the positive impact he has had on students, I would like to make a $10,000 donation to the Academic Boosters Fund at OHCHS. In addition, I'd like to create a $15,000 matching fund so others who have benefited from Jim's teachings can consider contributing as well. The funds will be used for educational opportunities for OHCHS students outside of the classroom. If you are interested in donating to the Academic Boosters Fund, please contact Pam Colby at 207-743-8914 Ext: 1511
