There is a display in the main lobby where students shared what they would spend on a pot of gold. This was a quick activity that students participated in during Knight Time Advisory on St. Patrick's Day.

Dear OMS Community,

We are two-thirds of the way through the school year! Trimester 2 ends today, March 21st. Trimester 2 Report Cards will be issued later next week.

Trimester 3 begins on Monday, March 24th. Students can view their Trimester 3 schedule on PowerSchool by clicking to next week (3/24 - 3/28). If a student needs a hard copy of their schedule, they can email their school counselor or stop by the Guidance suite and their school counselor can print out a schedule for them.

Best,

Katrina Crowley
