OMS 6th-grade students made pumpkin pie in social studies with Mrs. Wallker! The students were feeling "gourd" and "pie-tastic!" They really "pie-oneered" these creations. They were sure to say "good-pie" on their way to their next class! 🥧🎃

OMS 6th-grade band is looking and sounding great! Not to "toot our own horns," but the students really had to "drum up the courage" to try something new. We'll be "flat" out honest, these students are "sharp!" Their music was "fluitable," and it was a "note" worthy night.
