Registration packets, including access codes for online registration, have been given out to 6th and 7th graders.  8th graders were given access codes only.  If your student was absent and did not receive theirs, the student will need to go to the front office to pick up their registration packet and access codes.

OMMS PTO Academic Partners is proud to once again offer the opportunity to purchase pre-packaged school supplies for the upcoming 2019-2020 school year for OMMS students.   The school supply sale is our LARGEST fundraiser – proceeds from last year’s sale enabled us to donate a Chromebook cart stocked with 32 Chromebooks to the school for general use, as well as to fund other academic requests.  The package will include the requested supplies from the core classes for each grade at the low price of $55 (plus a minimal GoFan fee).  Avoid the stores, save time, and help us raise funds for the school by taking advantage of this convenient option to get your supplies.  These school supply packages will only be available through online pre-order from May 1 to May 31, so be sure to order yours now.

The following are the GoFan links (be sure to select the grade that your child will be in for the 2019-2020 year as each box is different):

A list of the items included in the package can be seen on the GoFan site. Packages will be available for pickup at the summer registration sessions.  Please print a copy of your receipt or save a digital copy and bring it with you to registration in case of any issues.  If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at sandy_junkin@yahoo.com – Sandy Junkin, School Supply Coordinator for 2019

From OMMS PTO:  Teacher Appreciation Week is this week!.   Please encourage your child to do something special for their teachers on the corresponding days below.
