OHPE Center • Summer 2021Since the COVID-19 crisis began, we have carefully considered the use of the Ornelas Health and Physical Education (OHPE) Center and how to best maintain the health and safety of the many people who enjoy the

use of our wonderful facility, whether for recreational activity or instructional purposes.

Because instruction is the core of our mission at TJC, we take numerous precautions and a certain degree of risk for instruction, but we cannot take the risk for recreational activities during this health

crisis. Therefore, we have come to the difficult decision that it is best to close the OHPE Center except for instructional purposes for the duration of the health crisis.

We hope the pandemic will be over soon and we will be able to again offer the services of the OHPE Center. In the meantime, for resources and announcements, please go to https://www.tjc.edu/ or www.tjc.edu/
