This week’s community shout out goes to Mayor Stuart Owen and Harry Webster! The Mayor has partnered with the related arts team to come talk with the 5th grade students to help them gain more knowledge about leadership and help them continue working through their first learning excursion of the school year. Thank you, Mayor Stuart Owen and Harry Webster for coming and sharing with our students!

Today we celebrated our Koalas of the Month. These students were nominated by their teachers, and/or classmates for celebrating the success of others. We are incredibly proud of them.
Happy Labor Day weekend, Old Mill!

Ms. Carla's purple bus, 2091, is currently experiencing mechanical issues. All children are safe at school and currently waiting for another bus to arrive. We are unsure of when this bus will be at school. If you would like to switch your child to a car rider and come pick them up, please call the school at 502-869-3200. When you arrive, please make sure you bring your ID.
We are thrilled to share the incredible excitement and energy that filled our school's gymnasium on Monday as we held our first rally of the school year! We started the rally with our OMES Koala Pledge. The enthusiasm of our students was infectious. It was a heartwarming sight to see our young learners come together in such a spirited and unified way. Our rally was about more than just cheering and fun. We used this exciting event as an opportunity to set the tone for the upcoming school year, to outline our expectations for behavior, and academic excellence. Our dedicated staff took the stage to share important messages about respect, responsibility, and the value of teamwork throughout the school year. #Koalascreate
