Let's celebrate Valentine's week at OMS.
OMS 7th-graders presented "My Dream" posters during their latest health unit. The posters were made after a unit focusing on goal setting and being better prepared and informed of the potential risks and consequences, which will help them make better decisions as they navigate through the challenges and adversities they will endure in real life.
OMS 6th-graders learned about the importance of fueling their bodies properly, especially focusing on getting adequate sleep. They got so good at understanding sleep that they can do it with their eyes closed! Some of them found their "dream" job: sleeping!
