 One of our best resources is YOU!   Coming up in the latter part of March will be our Diversity Fair – The Sequel! 
Many of our diverse families did not get an opportunity to participate in our fall 2005 Diversity Fair
(which was very exciting, informative and filled with ethnic cuisine). 
Please stay tuned for further announcements if you would like to help to promote awareness,
understanding and respect for our diverse population at OHMS via films, slides, artifacts, garb and cuisine.

                  “The person who DOES not read good books,

                        has no advantage over the person who CANNOT read good books”

The Scholastic Book Fair will return in the spring.  Look for it in late March to early April.
Definite dates to be announced.
