OMS Bulldog Bulletin

December has been a busy month so far, and we’re excited to share some of the highlights! Our Second Grade Gingerbread Event was a huge success and a lot of fun. It was heartwarming to see our Bulldogs working together to create gingerbread houses with special guests in their lives.

Additionally, our Band and Chorus delivered fantastic performances at our Winter Concert. Their hard work and dedication truly shone through, and we couldn’t be more proud of their accomplishments.

We are also thrilled to announce our Educators of the Year! Congratulations to Mrs. Riddell, our First Grade Teacher, who has been selected as Teacher of the Year, and Miss Iorio, our dedicated Paraprofessional, who is being recognized as our Educational Services Professional of the Year. We are so fortunate to have these incredible educators as part of the Old Mill School family. Their passion and commitment make a lasting impact on our students every day!

As we approach the holiday season, we want to wish everyone a joyous holiday and a restful December break. Thank you for your continued support, and we look forward to all that the new year will bring!
