Our OAS front office staff took time to recognize Executive Principal Dr. Gomez and show their appreciation for her leadership and dedication to our school.
The front office team at OAS is absolutely amazing. Every day, they are here supporting our students, families, teachers, and administrators, and they truly make a difference throughout our school community.
We appreciate them for taking part in this special celebration and for everything they do to help make OAS stronger!

💜 Congratulations to Ms. Ninamou, our OAS Staff of the Month! 💜
Ms. Ninamou may be new to OAS and to teaching, but the impact she is already making is anything but small. She teaches with passion, enthusiasm, and an energy that students can feel the moment they enter her classroom.
What stands out most is the belief she builds in her students. In Ms. Ninamou’s classroom, students don’t walk away thinking, “I can’t do math.” They are learning to believe, “I can do this.” She creates a space where students feel welcomed, encouraged, supported, and capable.
And her commitment doesn’t stop at her classroom door. She is always willing to volunteer, participate in school activities, and find ways to support our students and the OAS community.
Thank you, Ms. Ninamou, for bringing your passion, positivity, and belief in students to OAS. We are fortunate to have you as part of our community!

💜 A Little Late, but Definitely Not Forgotten! 💜
National Custodial Worker’s Recognition Day was October 2, while OAS was on Fall Break, so today we made sure to recognize the incredible team that works behind the scenes to keep our school clean, safe, and ready for our students and staff every day.
Their work may not always be seen, but it is certainly felt throughout our building. We are grateful for their hard work, dedication, and everything they do to take care of OAS.
Please help us celebrate and thank our amazing custodial and maintenance team! 💜🦉
We appreciate you, not just on October 2, but every day!

💜🌎 Our Stories. Our Heritage. Our OAS Community. 🌎💜
As part of our Hispanic Heritage Month celebration, we wanted our students to learn about Hispanic heritage through the people they see every day.
Throughout OAS, we are displaying posters featuring some of our Hispanic teachers and school leaders, sharing pieces of their cultural backgrounds, countries, traditions, and stories.
This is more than decorating our hallways. It is an opportunity for our students to learn about one another, see themselves represented in their school, and recognize the many cultures and experiences that make our OAS community who we are.
Every person has a story.
Every culture has something to teach us.
And every person deserves to know: You belong here.
Many People • Many Stories • One OAS Community

💜 You never truly know what someone else is carrying.
The student sitting beside you may be facing something you know nothing about. A kind word, an invitation to sit together, or simply choosing not to laugh at someone else’s expense can matter more than you realize.
To our students: Your words have power. Use them to build people up, not tear them down. You do not have to be someone’s best friend to treat them with dignity, kindness, and respect.
To our families: Raise the child you want others to encounter in the world. Teach them to treat others the way they would want to be treated. Teach them that kindness is not weakness, that differences are not reasons for cruelty, and that standing silently while someone else is mistreated is a choice, too.
Middle school is hard enough. Let’s not make it harder for one another.
At OAS, every student deserves to walk through our doors feeling safe, respected, valued, and like they belong. 💜🩵🦉

🌎 A Special Moment at Olmsted South 🌎💜

It was such a special moment to see our students celebrate where they come from alongside our Executive Principal while recognizing the people who help make OAS feel like home.

Mr. Beard’s art class is ready for the season! Students were fully engaged as they used artistic techniques, creativity, and their own ideas to create fall-inspired artwork. It was great to see students focused on the creative process and bringing their individual designs to life.
We can’t wait to see the finished pieces! 🍁🎃

Learning comes to life in Ms. Shepard’s Arts & Humanities class!
Students were actively engaged in hands-on learning while exploring Meet Kaya: An American Girl. As they learned about Kaya’s story and the historical and cultural context surrounding it, students extended their learning through creative projects, including bracelet making and model tipi construction.
Literature, history, culture, and creativity all coming together in one learning experience! 💜
