Elementary Curriculum Night

Elementary Curriculum Night

On March 10th, the Elementary children presented their research projects on the "Systems of the Human Body". Topics included the following systems: skeletal, immune, respiratory, digestive, nervous, endocrine, circulatory, muscular and skin. The children participated on teams and shared their findings with the attendees on curriculum night.

 

Parent-Teacher Conferences

OMS successfully completed its annual parent-teacher conferences. As always, it was a wonderful opportunity for the parents to connect with the teachers. This spring conference gives parents a full picture of their child's progress and accomplishments in the '22-'23 school year.
 
We witness your children thrive and blossom each and every day at OMS and we hope you were able to receive confirmation of the same from the teachers as well.
